TY - CHAP ID - citeulike:2501045 L3 - citeulike-article-id:2501045 N2 - Workflow management systems aim at controlling the execution of complex application processes in distributed environments. Workflow management currently moves from modeling and executing mostly static structured workflows to supporting flexible workflows, which are typically executed in distributed and heterogeneous environments. This paper discusses the use of distributed object technology to built a flexible workflow management system. In particular, based on a detailed object-oriented object model, we discuss the dynamic behavior of workflow instances, and we show how flexibility requirements have influenced our design.
