Owing to the developed If industry, many people are more and more interested in Workflow which is an automated business processing system. In this paper, we present basic structures and various parallel processing structures of a workflow using EMFG (Extended Mark Flow Graph) that makes conceptional design available. And then, We design a workflow with EMFG. We propose the commitability verification method to check whether a workflow can complete or not and the logical bug verification method to find whether invalid components exist or not by using simulation result of it. The proposed EMFG modeling and analysis method for a workflow make it possible to become a visual and formal design. Also, it makes intuitional and mathematical analysis possible.

It has a tendency to build Workflow Systems based on the web with the spread of web environment. The important function in Workflow Systems are to automatize job flow according to the predefined regulations, procedures or conditions. Hence, there needs to consider excluding passive jobs, supporting GUI and a migratory information processing for information flow. Distributed Workflow System for workflow of a distributed service system should perform transfer control and Fault-Tolerance between tasks based on process logic, and real time processing. However, the existing mail systems being used are just for transmission and it doesn't fit to automatize job flow. To solve the matter, there needs a Distributed Workflow Engine to design workflow and automatize its control. In this paper, we design a web browser with graphic interface using web mail, a browser creating a script code for a procedural performance. Also, we design a Process-engine has a Preprocessor which tolerates process scheduler for task transaction or server node's faults on distributed environment. The proposed system enhances the reliability and usability of a system reduces the cost rather than a workflow system based on database, for they execute as proxy for a server's fault or suers' absence.

A Workflow Management System is one which provides procedural automation of a business process by management of the sequence of work activities. The existing workflow management systems have limitation of interaction among application systems. In this paper, we propose a new workflow management system that can be adapted in dynamically changed paradigm of distributed computing by using Web Service. System Architecture and prototyping execution model of the system is described in BPEL4WS.

Modeller is defined as the office work procedures(business processes), and that is systemically based upon the real-time collaborative operations by a set of actors, which is called group. This paper describes the design of the ICN editor that is operable under the real-time collaborative computing environment. We use the database agent that enables the ICN editor to operate among multiple actors(group) through the event-driven collaboration platform. Consequently, a set of workflow and business processes defined through this editor is not only stored onto database but also transformed into the format of the workflow process definition language(WPDL) that is a standardized worflow description and specification language proposed by the workflow management coalition(WfMC). This method can improve the performance of workflow processing by minimizing the workflow execution cost occurred during workflow definition.

B2B(business-to-business) commerce has become the prime driver of contemporary electronic commerce. Under B2B commerce, corporations often must operate across organizational boundaries to share their business processes. Workflow management was proposed by Aalst(4, 5) to support several business partners that are involved in shared workflow processes in B2B commerce. We designed a messaging system for B2B workflow, where heterogeneous workflow management systems on each organization for trade were integrated. Based on Aalst's example in(4, 5), we analyzed B2B workflow by using class diagram, use case diagram, activity diagram, and statechart diagram of UML, and designed the messaging system, We also demonstrated a prototype system which was implemented by using Java API and XML. To compare with a holistic system such as EDI systems, the messaging system allows the business partners in B2B commerce to communicate with each other by dedicated messages and integrate each B2B interoperable workflow without any restrictions.

Building envelope systems with growing complexity in geometry and performance criteria demand adapted workflow processes toward the efficient integration of their design and fabrication. To facilitate integration of the workflow process, this study analyzes relationships among teams who share digital models and exchange information that help project participants identify areas of improvement in task allocation and exchanges among various actors, systems, and activities. In addition, major gaps identified in knowledge transfer, project tracking, and design integration during the performance evaluation stages, emphasize the need for a more comprehensive approach to integrating the design, the fabrication, and the construction parameters of building envelope systems. To evaluate the effectiveness of streamlining interactions of design parameters with fabrication constraints and constructability assessments, this paper examines a mechanical design approach as it applies to various project scenarios to develop a mechanical solution for streamlining building envelope design and construction workflow.

In this paper, we analyze workflow management system in programming language aspects. Many workflow characteristics such as workflow relevant data, workflow control structures, and workflow application invocations are studied and compared with those of distributed parallel programs. Although there exist minor differences between them, we found that there exist surprisingly many analogies between them. Based on this observation, we suggest to view workflow management system as distributed parallel program development platform. This new view on workflow management system provides users consistent view on workflow and workflow management system and with this view workflow management system designer can cope with arbitrary requests from the users keeping design consistency. Moreover the analogy between workflow and program provides a basis to apply program analysis techniques to the analysis of workflow.

Workflow composition and management is a crucial part of Component Based Development (CBD). Workflows can be composed reusing existing workflows to improve efficiency during the various stages of software development process. Reusability of software process activities is improved by using existing workflows. This paper proposes a Workflow Composition Engine that generates workflow which consists of existing process activities and describes design of The Workflow Composition Engine. A prototype of the Workflow Composition Engine implemented is described.

The Evolution of Workflow Managment consists of rhe automation of business procedures or "workflows" during which documents, information or tasks are passed from one participant to another in a way that is governed by rules or procedures. Workflow technologies have evolved from image management system, document management system, relational or object database systems, and electronic mail system. Workflow Management system has the benefits to improve better efficiency, process control,flexibility, business process. Automation of many business processes results in the elimination standdardizing working methods. Consistency in the processes leads to greater predictability in levels of response to customers and software control over processes enables their re-design in line with changing business needs, In this present study, we implement Electronic Approval System which is a kind of Workflow Management system using static and dynamic flow control information on the web environment.

Collaborative system is an essential idea in the global and e-business environments Workflow plays a key role implementing collaborative system. Workflow is an emerging technology for business process automation, monitoring integrity enforcement, and recovery. A process model describes the structure of business process in the real world The process model can be transformed into a Workflow model utilizing a computer. The paper proposes a web-based Workflow process design in the B2B environment Considering a global environment where the partners interchange their processes beyond the company boundaries, a web-based infrastructure is the most preferred platform Considering this, Workflow processes and e-Business structures were combined together on the web environment.
