A Domain Specific Language for Describing S-BPM Processes.

Natural language is the first choice for most stakeholders for describing business processes. S-BPM addresses this by taking basic natural language structure into consideration. However, so far S-BPM processes can only be modeled with graph-based tools. Although graph-based tools provide a good overview of processes they have also their disadvantages, because changing or adding language elements is costly, and graphical symbols cannot be written like natural sentences. In this paper, we present a Domain Specific Language to specify S-BPM processes and a process engine kernel for executing these modeled processes.
