<h1>BPMN2 Modeler</h1>

		<p>
		The Eclipse BPMN2 Modeler is a graphical tool for authoring models that are compliant with the
		<a href="http://www.omg.org/spec/BPMN/2.0/">BPMN 2.0 standard</a>.
		<a href="http://www.bpmn.org/">Business Process Model and Notation</a> (BPMN) is an XML language for modeling business processes.
		The primary goal of BPMN is to provide a notation that is readily understandable by all business users, from the business
		analysts that create the initial drafts of the processes, to the technical developers responsible for implementing the 
		technology that will perform those processes, and finally, to the business people who will manage and monitor those
		processes. Thus, BPMN creates a standardized bridge for the gap between the business process design and process implementation. 
		</p>

<h1>Extensibility</h1>
		<p>
		BPMN 2.0 introduces an extensibility mechanism that allows extending standard BPMN elements with additional attributes.
		It can be used by modelers and modeling tools to add non-standard elements or Artifacts to satisfy a specific need,
		such as the unique requirements of a vertical domain, and still have valid BPMN Core. 
		</p>
		<p>
		The goal of the Eclipse BPMN2 Modeler is to not only provide a graphical modeling tool,
		but also to allow plug-in developers to easily customize the behavior and appearance of the editor for specific BPM workflow engines
		that use this BPMN 2.0 extensibility mechanism.
		</p>

<h1>Architecture</h1>
		<p>
		The BPMN2 Modeler is built on the <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-Plug-in-architecture/plugin_architecture.html">Eclipse Plug-in Architecture</a>
		and provides several extension points for customizing the editor's appearance and behavior.
		The <a href="https://wiki.eclipse.org/BPMN2-Modeler/DeveloperTutorials">Deveoper Tutorials Wiki pages</a> provide several examples and guidelines
		for extending the capabilities of Eclipse BPMN2 Modeler.
		</p>
		<p>
		The foundation of the BPMN2 Modeler is the <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/modeling/mdt/?project=bpmn2">Eclipse BPMN 2.0 EMF meta model</a>
		which is part of the <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/modeling/mdt/">Model Development Tools</a> (MDT) project.
		The model was originally developed by contributing members of the OMG BPMN 2.0 working group and is fully compliant with the spec.
		</p>
