Following implementation of integration components, the BPM layer provides capture and delivery of event data and statistics, which can also be input back into the modeling environment.

We introduce a modeling pattern that enables a modeler to use event handlers to create processes with a variable number of parallel branches, the exact number of which is only determined at runtime.

When the behavior of one or more key architectural elements is event-driven, modeling with State Diagrams can be especially useful in understanding that behavior.
