BPMN?Method of illustrating business processes in the form of a diagram similar to aflowchart.

Originally developed by the Business Process Management Initiative (BPMI).Currently maintained by the Object Management Group (OMG). The currentversion of BPMN is 2.0.

BPMN is assembled from a small set of core elements, making it easy fortechnical and non-technical observers to understand the processes involved.

Elements are categorized into three major groups called flow objects (geometricfigures ), connecting objects (lines) and swimlanes (swimming pool shapedrectangle).

Provides a standard, easy-to-read way to define and analyze public and privatebusiness processes.
