breakpoint (input/output): If a transition contains a breakpoint property, the GWES suspends the
execution of the workflow when reaching the transition. The GWES then sets the property value to

breakpoint is reached again. Valid values are:
empty
"REACHED"
"RELEASED"
combine.data.groups (input):
The transition will generate output tokens with a "data.group" property that is a combination of the input token
data groups. If, e.g., a token from one input place belongs to data.group="a" and the token from a second input
place belongs to data.group="b", then the output token will get data.group="a x b".
decision.1, decision.2, ... (output): Workflow Analysis: This transition is involved in a decision
(e.g., a conflict where two transitions compete for the same token). Conditions which
resolve the decision are not regarded.

triggered by this transition.

is calculated as average over all activities triggered by this transition.
durationActiveMs.stdDeviation (output):
Standard deviation of durationActiveMs.mean.
durationActiveMs.min (output):
Minimum value of the duration in milliseconds for a activity being in status "active" regarding all activities
triggered by this transition.

Arithmetic mean value of the total activity duration in milliseconds calculated as average over all activities
triggered by this transition.

within the conditions and edgeExpressions of this transition.

decision.1, decision.2, ... (output): Workflow Analysis: This place is involved in a decision
(e.g., a conflict where two transitions compete for the same token). Conditions which

"false"
data.group (input):
String that identifies the group to which the data on the token belongs. If a transition has serveral input or
read places it tries to group tokens with the same data.group identifier. If a token does not contain a data.group
identifier, then it is treated as an arbitrary group (wild card).
reservedByTransition (input/output):
The transition ID that reserves this token. Used by the spatial co-allocation algorithm.
resource.allocation.group.XXX (input/output):
Spatial co-allocation: The property value is the resource name where the corresponding resource allocation group
has been mapped onto. "XXX" denotes the identifier specified by the transition property "resource.allocation.group".
