??? The class
Trigger is made up of several subclasses each of them, following BPMN specification,
expressing a special type of trigger (Figure 9).
Finally, to define all the BPMN properties of each BPMN primitives we define,
where appropriate, ontological properties to meet the BPMN specification.

From the BPMN Metamodel to the Ontological Business Process Model
Starting from the metamodel, previously defined, it is possible to define a business
process model defining instances of ontological classes and properties (we talk
about concrete ontological classes). Suppose that we want to define a simple business
process made up of one Pool and of a star event, one task and the end event.
The task is linked to the start and end event with sequence flow.
We define an instance of the class Process and we define the instances of all (of some
of them) properties defined by BPMN specification and in the metamodel.
