BPMN Basics, Organizing Your Business Processes
sponsored by IBM
Premiered:  13 Nov 2009
Language:  English
ABSTRACT:

Business Process Modeling Notation (BPMN) is a newer language but has been the focus of much attention from business and IT. As business processes grow more complex, BPMN provides a structured way to organize them. But it is important to know the basics before selecting a BPMN solution. In this screencast, TechTarget Editorial Director Peter Varhol will discuss some of the basics of BPMN, covering such topics as:

  1. Workflow and sequencing
  2. How BPMN is different from BPEL
  3. Flow objects, connecting objects and artifacts
  4. How "swim lanes" are used
