Covers only the BPMN constructs that carry semantic value at the EA level —
processes, tasks, events, gateways, participants, data objects, and message flows.
Omits execution-level detail (diagram interchange geometry, waypoints, marker styles,
I/O specifications, correlation, loop characteristics) that adds triple density
without supporting cross-model reasoning.

Use this ontology when the goal is to query, validate, or reason across BPMN and
other models (ArchiMate, C4, TOGAF). For full BPMN 2.0.2 fidelity — including
diagram interchange and all 144 metamodel classes — use the complete BPMN suite
(modelingLanguages/bpmn/).

Design rationale: BPMN is execution-oriented and much denser than ArchiMate.
A faithful 1:1 lift of every BPMN-XML element creates many triples whose semantic
value at EA level is near zero. The value of RDF over native XML materializes only
when you intend to query, validate, or reason across BPMN and other models."""@en ;
