BPeX: A New Approach to BPMN Model Portability

Michele Chinosi presents BPeX, a new approach to business process model portability. BPeX was created to address some weaknesses in XPDL, such as its complex conceptual model, lack of native referential integrity, and complex required queries. BPeX has a clear conceptual model, enforces referential integrity constraints, and allows for simpler queries compared to XPDL. BPeX also aims to support execution capabilities and additional analyses that XPDL does not provide.
