This project will provide a comprehensive Business Process Management Suite (BPMS) which covers all phases of the Business Process Lifecycle including modeling, simulation, execution and monitoring.
The contribution scope is:

• The business process modeling environment including human workflow, system integration, organizational and data modeling entirely based on Eclipse, facilitated by the Process Workbench
• The Runtime Environment including the Process Engine and the browser-based End User Process Portal entirely based on Web standards (J2EE, JSF) as well as planned adoption for OSGi services
• The rapid application development environment embedded in Eclipse
• The simulation feature
• The interfaces to external systems (e.g. via Web Services or messaging), Document Repositories, Scanning Engines and Business Rules Management Systems
• The Reporting Engine

Not in scope are:

• Document Repositories, Scanning Engines and Business Rules Management Systems
• Application Servers and Database Management Systems being Runtime Environments for the Process Engine and the Process Portal and especially not
• Any business process models for an arbitrary industry

These contributions are either complementary components to a BPMS or value add by industry providers in their respective application domains.
