Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) is a graphical representation for specifying business processes in a business process model. BlueSpice provides an intuitive GUI (graphical user interface) for creating BPMN diagrams. Each element (node and edge) can be represented by its own wiki page, which publishes the information according to the Linked Data Principles. The feature is based on the open source project bpmn.io. The extension Page Forms is used to facilitate the input of information for each element.
