Abstract
According to some embodiments, a token synchronization gateway may be recognized in a graph-based business process model, such as a business process modeling notation model. A number of upstream artifacts located upstream from the token synchronization gateway may then be identified in the business process modeling notation model. In addition, a final artifact may be identified directly in front of the token synchronization gateway. The token synchronization gateway may then be compiled into code that will be executed at runtime to perform a synchronization process. The synchronization process may, for example, include handling tokens Tthrough Tto synchronize the upstream artifacts, with each token being associated with one of the n upstream artifacts.
