JBPM_jPDL

jBPM is "a workflow management system", that can support multiple process languages including its own jPDL.

Xholon includes a jPDL mechanism. All or part of a Xholon hierarchical structure can be composed of jPDL nodes. These can be exported as a true jPDL file. As far as Xholon is concerned, the nodes in a jPDL subtree are very similar to the nodes in a state machine subtree.

The following XML is part of a Xholon application, exported in jPDL format. The figure shows this XML displayed using the jPDL diagram editor.
