… from simplified BPMN palette

More BPMN 2.0 constructs …

IBM BPM 7.5.1 Adds New BPMN 2.0 ConstructsIncrease power, simplicity of executable process models using advanced constructs

5

Full Set of Message Events• More explicit modeling & simplified implementation of

event operations

Event Sub-processes• Simplifies implementation of asynchronous workflow

driven by message, timer, or error events

Event Gateways• Wait for one or more message or timeout events to

determine subsequent flow

IBM BPM 7.5.1 Enhances Overall Usage Experience

Asset Sharing & Lifecycle Management

• Guided “refactoring” of shareable application assets into toolkits• Quick generation & publishing of process documentation• Side-by-side version comparison (basic)• Web-based Process Inspector for administration of disconnected Process Server instances• Removal of unwanted process apps and toolkits from archive

Performance & Scalability

• Continued improvements to throughput and concurrency• Faster task inbox search

Installation • Easier, faster installation of Proc Center / Proc Server clusters

Security• Fine-grained authorization of process app management (terminate, suspend, delete, etc.)• Secured internal messaging bus

Serviceability • Built-in collectors for IBM Support Assistant

Expansion• Process Center Advanced manages different editions of Process Servers

More powerful asset sharing & management, easier installation, faster performance
