BPMN 2.0 is becoming more and more popular. There are modelling tools that support BPMN. However number of BPMN constructs can be a bit daunting. Neopost Si 65 Manual Muscle here.

Therefore it is helpful to have some “cheat sheet” at hand. Fortunately there are BPMN posters provided by tool providers (like BOC – company I work for) or BPM(N) gurus – like Bruce Silver.

Below you can find a list of BPMN 2.0 posters I know of. Feel free to comment if you have some other BPMN 2.0 posters to share. 1) (Probably the most popular).

Available in 10 language versions. 2) (Unfortunately I am deep-linking as I cannot find normal download page) by Bruce Silver. Great summary of Bruce’s book and teaser for his BPMN 2.0 training. Shows BPMN 2.0 basics + info how BPMN can be extended for business users.. 4) by MID.de.

This is an excellent book for those of us who *need* to know at least some parts of the BPMN2 specification like the back of our hand. If you're only doing things with BPMN2 via a designer/'drawing' program, this isn't really for you -- unless you want to understand some of the inner workings of the standard. Although I will say that he provides a fairly clear layman's introduction to some of the nuances, so maybe it is for you.

Although I will say that he provides a fairly clear layman's introduction to some of the nuances, so maybe it is for you. One of the reasons that I am really glad to have read large parts of this book is that the BPMN2 specification (as of January 2013) is not all that precise. There are a few parts of the specification that seem to contradict each other and far more things that are actually not mentioned in the specification, leaving both implementers and users to guess at what the best way to interpret the BPMN2 specification would be. Silver, having been on some of the specification committees himself, occasionally drops golden nuggets of information concerning the latter: missing information or parts of the specification that are unfortunately too vague. For that reason alone, the book is worth 4 stars.

I would have given it 5 stars if it was slightly more comprehensive -- but my needs in this area as a BPMN2 engine implementer are different than most users. All in all, a worthwhile companion for those of us who need to know more about the BPMN2 specification. (I haven't really 'read' the whole book, but I've read enough to give an opinion. I expect to continue 'reading' it for another 2 or 3 years.

This is a useful introduction to BPMN. Perhaps the most useful part of it comes with the understanding that BPMN 2.0 is not just another collection of flowchart symbology, but rather that each symbol is just a representation of underlying code. Thus it is not enough to use BPMN symbology, but that the underlying code has to validate. (This is why using Visio to create BPMN diagrams isn't such a good idea; it is too easy to use Visio symbols that look the same, creating diagrams that won't valida This is a useful introduction to BPMN.
