===== Notes ===== | ===== Notes ===== | ||
+ | Recommended number of activities on a diagram is up to 7, the maximum is 10. | ||
+ | If there are more you either have to print it on several sheets and glue them together or scale it down to one page which makes the diagram unreadable. | ||
- | Рекомендуемое количестве действий на одной диаграмме - до 7, максимальное - 10. | + | A recommended approach is to decompose |
- | При большем количестве диаграмму приходится либо распечатывать на нескольких листах и потом их склеивать, | + | This way the high-level logic of the end-to-end process |

- | Хороший стиль - декомпозировать процесс на подпроцессы и разместить каждый подпроцесс на отдельном листе. | + | |
- | При таком методе моделирования хорошо видна высокоуровневая логика процесса, | + | |

- | Альтернативный метод - размещать фрагменты процесса на нескольких листах, | + | |

- | * If the diagram becomes too large to stay readable when fit to a single page, use subprocesses and put each subprocess on a separate page. | + | |
- | * Recoomended maximum number | + | |
+ | An alternative method is to split the process into fragments, depict each on a separate page and connect by link events. | ||
+ | This is less preferable because the end-to-end process logic cannot be captured at a glance. | ||
