Hey,
Yes, task engine based on WS-Human Task specification is part of jBPM5.
* Does the BPM Suite provide templates to create human tasks? (If yes, please describe
each of them briefly)
You mean forms for human tasks? This should help:

* Is it possible to pause and resume tasks?
Yes it is possible. You can check this operations to tasks here:

http://docs.jboss.org/jbpm/v5.2/userguide/ch.Human_Tasks.html#d0e3781
* Is it possible to run tasks in parallel?
Tasks are independent, so you can run tasks in paralell.
* Is it possible to accept, reject and forward tasks? (Functionality provided
out-of-the-box?).
You can foward tasks. Accept a task would be claiming it. And I don't know reject.
* Is there a central task management concept/solution?
Yes. A task server is a separate concept. The jbpm runtime will communicate with task
server to create tasks, and then you can use the task service API to manage tasks
lyfecycle. (

Hope this helps,
Demian
