The adoption of formal models by process specialists has faced
two challenges: First, it requires process specialists to get training in formal
modeling. Second, the resulting specifications bear little resemblance wrt.
the original descriptions. We introduce a tool that supports translations
between natural language descriptions and declarative process models.
The resulting models are given in a graphical formalism, DCR Graphs.
Traceability is at the core of the tool: Later changes in the process model
due to, e.g., ambiguity resolution are traced back into the text. This allows
users to either correct and complete their descriptions, or to derive models
more refined than the text. In this paper, we describe the mechanics of
the tool and provide examples of its use. Finally, we report on experiences
using the tool in a Danish Municipal government.
