Subject: Workflow Patterns Web Site now also provides CPN models of patterns

Dear Petri netters,

Those interested in workflow theory and practice may be interested to
learn that the Workflow Patterns Web Site has been thoroughly overhauled
to bring it up to date with the latest research insights. This site,
located at www.workflowpatterns.com, provides an independent source of
information for the BPM/workflow community, both in academia and in
industry, addressing fundamental notions underlying the specification
and execution of workflows.

The Workflow Patterns Web Site features patterns for the control-flow,
data, and resource perspectives as well as exception handling patterns.
For the control-flow, data and resource patterns illustrative animations
are available. The original control-flow patterns have been revised and
extended and for each of the new control-flow patterns a formalization
in terms of a Colored Petri Net (CPN) has been provided to avoid
ambiguities. Evaluations of a number of commercial offerings and process
modeling languages in terms of the patterns can be accessed. The site
also lists a report on "Patterns in Colored Petri Nets" showing typical
design patterns that can be used when constructing Petri net models.

Naturally, we welcome any suggestions for improvement of the
www.workflowpatterns.com site.
