Scope:

The primary purpose of the multipart standard ISO/IEC 19763 is to specify a metamodel framework for interoperability. 

This part of ISO/IEC 19763 specifies the metamodel that describes a facility to register administrative information and selected metadata about process models. The metamodel specified in this part of ISO/IEC 19763 is intended to promote semantic discovery and reuse of process models within/across process model repositories. For this purpose, it provides selected metadata and common semantics of process models created with a specific process modelling language, including Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN)[1], UML (Unified Modelling Language) Activity Diagram[5] and EPC (Event-driven Process Chain)[7], etc. The metamodel can help discovery of the function and composition of a process, and promote reuse of its components at different levels of granularity. 

The following are outside the scope of this part of ISO/IEC 19763: 

  • details related to modelling notations or descriptive languages of process models; 
  • runtime environments or implementation platforms for executing processes.

Project need:

To review the Standard within the required 5 year period.
