Abstract
Coordination is one of the most important issues in order to reduce the damage caused by a crisis. To analyze the efficiency of a coordination plan, a BPMN (Business Process Modeling Notation version 2.0) model is usually used to capture the processes of activities and messages exchanged between the actors involved in a crisis, while an OCMAS (Organization Centered Multi-Agent System) model is used to represent the roles, their interactions and the organizational structures. In this paper, we describe a proposal that allows to perform an automatic transformation between BPMN and OCMAS models of the same coordination plan. The proposal is illustrated through a coordination plan of a tsunami evacuation.
