BPMN Sketch Miner

About the Book

Unlike most traditional visual model drawing tools, BPMN Sketch Miner allows you to concentrate on capturing the stories behind the process as they are expressed by participants. You focus on the content of the process model. BPMN Sketch Miner takes care of visually representing it so that you can immediately show the visual model to gather feedback. Once your BPMN sketch is validated you can export it in standard BPMN 2.0/XML and continue refining it using your favourite modeling tool.

This book will take you on a tour of the core Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) and show you how it can be represented using simple text. After reading it you will learn how to auto-magically transform your written notes into visual process models and become an advanced user of BPMN Sketch Miner.

Brilliant

The idea to use process discovery techniques to aid manual process modeling is brilliant (i.e. to mix manual and automated modeling)
