BPMN Parser

Overview

The BPMN Parser Project is a Java-based tool designed to parse BPMN (Business Process Model and Notation) files, perform various operations such as counting BPMN elements, adding random activity times to tasks, and calculating the cycle time.

Features

1. Count BPMN Elements: The project provides functionality to count all BPMN elements within a BPMN file, including start events, end events, tasks, and gateways.
2. Add Activity Time: It allows users to add random activity times to user tasks or tasks in a BPMN file, enhancing the realism of process simulations.
3. Calculate Cycle Time: The project can calculate the cycle time of a process based on the durations of tasks and the maximum time among outgoing flows from parallel gateways.

Getting Started and Usage

Getting Started

To use the BPMN Parser, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository to your local machine.
2. Navigate to the src directory.
3. Compile and run the Parser.java file.
4. When prompted, enter the name of the BPMN file located in the resource folder.

Usage

1. Import BPMN Files: Download your BPMN files (created in BPMN.io) and place them in the resource folder.
2. Run the Program: Execute Parser.java and enter the filename (with extension) when prompted.
3. View Results: The program will create a new file with the prefix "updated_" in the resource folder, containing the BPMN file with added activity times.
4. Analyzing Results: The program counts all BPMN elements within a file. It also calculates cycle time by giving random duration to tasks.
