This paper presents Project Procedure Diagrams (PPDs) as a technique for specifying and elaborating project milestone plans. The graphical syntax of PPDs is similar to UML activity diagrams. The operational semantics is based on token flow and resembles playing common board games. The base concepts can be easily grasped by project managers and lend themselves to experimentation and simulation.
In spite of their apparent simplicity, PPDs offer support for advanced concepts like parallel subprojects, multi-level iterations, forward and backward planning and for the composition of complex plans from modular process components. Furthermore, PPDs are based on rigorous, formally founded syntax and semantics to ease the development of tools.
