Abstract
The artifact-based modeling can provide flexible and intuitive descriptions to the conceptual workflow. In the physical execution level, BPEL has been widely supported by the industrial sector as a language. Building the bridge between them will help business people to define and improve process model efficiently. In this paper, we present a method to translate artifact-based business process model to BPEL. The Read/Write services of artifact are proposed to solve data exchange. And some mapping rules are proposed to convert the flow type to the control structure. After that, the algorithm of translating artifact-based business process model to BPEL is proposed and an experimental example is provided.
