How to elicit and specify software requirements from BPMN diagrams?

Different techniques for eliciting requirements from business process models have arisen due to the importance of software requirements to be aligned with the business in order to achieve organizational goals. Although there are several ways to represent these models, the BPMN notation has been considered the most adequate for facilitating the communication between different types of stakeholders. This paper aims to present a systematic review with the support of the snowballing technique, to raise studies on how to elicit and specify requirements from business process models in BPMN. As main results it is pointed out that this type of elicitation is recent, well automated, uses supporting heuristics, is mainly concerned with functional requirements, and the most of primary studies specify the requirements as use cases.
