Sammendrag
Nowadays the most commonly used technologies in Enterprise Architecture modeling are static.
BPMN is one of such technologies, which is used widely for drawing models of business
processes. Limitation of BPMN is that it gives a static image, or drawing, of business process
without simulation capability. Petri net is one of the modeling tools with dynamics functionality.
This functionality is mostly applied in simulation of discrete-event dynamic systems. Business
process can be represented as such a system. BPMN and Petri net are completely different tools
with different purposes. In the paper we suggest an original approach of transformation of
BPMN to Petri net, in addition to it we propose an extension to BPMN diagram which will make
further simulation with Petri net more powerful. As a proof for the suggested concept, we made a
partial implementation of it.
