Abstract

This paper deals with the comparison of BPMN and DEMO process modelling tools in the form of Usability study. The authors present the methods used to compare, define the appropriate equipment of the laboratory and propose the CASE study model. The results from the two CASE studies performed are critical and define the conclusion. The result is a recommendation when it is advisable to use BPMN and when DEMO. Another result is the proposed method of verification of process modelling tools.
