About the talk:

BPM(N) using jBPM5

A Business Process Management (BPM) suite offers you the capabilities to better manage and streamline your business processes. JBoss jBPM continues its vision in this area by offering a lightweight process engine for executing business processes in pure Java, combined with the necessary services and tooling to support business processes in their entire life cycle. This allows not only developers but also business users to manage your business processes more efficiently (using a combination of web-based and Eclipse-based tooling).  A lot is happening in the BPM area with the introduction of the BPMN 2.0 standard, the increasing interest in more dynamic and adaptive processes, integration with business rules and event processing, etc. This presentation will show you how jBPM5 tackles these challenges and give you an overview of its most important features.
