Abstract
BPMN offers a rich pool of language constructs to model different aspects of choreographies, interorganizational business processes and service compositions. With collaborations and choreographies, BPMN enables the modeler concentrate on the control flow and the message flow, respectively. At the same time, data flow is only treated as a subordinate extension. In contrast, recent artifact-centric approaches model processes from the point of view of the data objects that are manipulated during the process. This paper investigates to what extend BPMN is suitable to model artifact-centric processes and which extensions are required to comfortably support this modeling approach. © 2012 Springer-Verlag.
