Taxonomy of process modeling languages

Process modeling languages (PMLs) are languages used to express software process models. Process centered software engineering environments (PSEEs) are the environments used to define, modify, analyze and enact a process model. While both PMLs and PSEEs are important, it is the characteristics of PMLs that are the focus of the article, which leads to a taxonomy different from that presented in other work primarily with the inclusion of important human dimension issues (e.g. awareness support) from computer supported cooperative work (CSCW)
