PropertiesDennis Schunselaar

Properties

• A generic way to add information to a formalism• Process Trees• Petri Nets• BPMN• …• Pick your formalism

19

Properties

• Dynamic way to encode dynamics/information• Work schedule• Variable values• Costs• Alignment• Compliance• ...• The possibilities are endless

20

How do properties exist in a formalism?

• PropertableElement• Independent• Dependent

• For Process Trees, properties are stored in the XML of the formalism elements

Configurations for Configurable Properties

• Not yet complete provided objects• No visualisation• No import/export

• A set of possible values and which of these values can be removed• Configuration (partially) specifies which values are/are

not removed
