It is important to define both Object
properties that allow us to link together concept and Data Type properties, that
is, simple type.
??? Analysis of BPMN in order to reach some concept that is not modeled by
classes and properties but as an instance of classes and properties.
In the following section we explain in detail the BPMN ontological metamodel.
Development. of.BPMN. .
Ontological.Metamodel
In the development of the BPMN ontological metamodel we follow the BPMN
specification and we try to translate in ontological classes the main concepts defined
in BPMN specification.
In the BPMN ontological metamodel we define two main types of classes: Concrete
and Abstract.classes. Concrete classes are classes that may contain instances when
we define a specific model starting from the metamodel. Abstract.classes are used
only to define BPMN concepts but these classes cannot contain instances of a specific
model. Each Abstract class has at least one Concrete class where it is possible
to define instances.
