Re: Process Modeling Tool
I am looking for a tool/software so that I can create graphical respresentation of processes.I guess something like Visio. If you're looking for something on the desktop, SmartDraw works for me. If you want something to integrate into a web app, there are 2 possibilities worth mentioning: - If you only want to auto-create a static diagram from something that's in a database already, SVG is ideal. The only problem is that people need an SVG-enabled browser to see it. - If you want something interactive, this can also be done with SVG, but Flash is a more suitable tool. We've got something like this in our CMS - we built a generic diagram editor that can create any type of diagram so long as it consists of shapes joined by straight lines with various types of connector shapes, and we use it in the CMS for several purposes - describing workflow processes, designing relational data models, and visualising semantic networks (metadata vocabularies). I like it so much I use it instead of SmartDraw for a lot of things now.
