Imperative languages like BPMN are eminently suitable for representing routine processes and are likewise cumbersome in case of flexible processes. The latter are easier to describe using declarative process modeling languages (DPMLs). However, understandability and tool support of DPMLs are comparatively poor. Additionally, there may be an affinity to a particular language caused by existing company infrastructure or individual preferences. Hence, a technique for automatically translating process models between different languages is required. Process models usually describe several aspects of a process, such as activity orderings and role assignments. Therefore, our approach focuses on translating resource-aware process models. We utilize well-established techniques for process simulation and mining to avoid the definition of cumbersome model transformation rules. Our implementation is based on a discussion of general configuration principles and a concrete configuration suggestion. The whole translation approach is discussed and evaluated at the example of BPMN and DPIL.
