jBPM4 and More

Abstract

Part 1: Business Process Management Introduction by Joram Barrez

In this part, a general overview of Business Process Management and its benefits will be shown, before diving into the basic of JBoss jBPM. This part will be concluded using a realistic example, demonstrating the ease of development and flexibility of the jBPM framework.

Part 2: JBoss jBPM Value for BPM and Other Use Cases by Tom Baeyens

We'll show how jBPM covers BPM and other more technically oriented use cases. In the meantime most people know that BPM's traditional promise of automagically creating software based on diagrams created by non-technical people is an illusion. Both developers and non-technical people need to collaborate to create executable business processes. This session will highlight the jBPM features that make a smooth collaboration possible.
