But as a DRG demonstrates, decision making itself can be a complex process, and this can give rise to two views of the same decision space that require complex alignment – the BPMN view of the process and the DMN view of the decision lattice. And DMN is another producer/consumer of artifact details.

At the same time, the dozen or so ‘implementations’ utilized the basic ISO 1087-1 model and SBVR linguistic and logic terminology as a (pseudo-) formal semantics for their own languages.
