Do process models benefit from a clear modeling direction? The video discusses whether process models should follow a consistent modeling direction. It compares models with and without swim lanes, highlighting the confusion caused by inconsistent layout. A redesigned version with left-to-right flow and color-coded resources is proposed to improve clarity and reduce complexity through sub-workflows. This is video #42 of the #BPASeries.
