基于数据库的轻量级工作流管理系统研究

Research on Database-based Lightweight Workflow Management System

文章首先对工作流技术及其发展现状进行了简述,指出了工作流应用方面存在的一些问题;在此基础上提出了一种基于数据库的轻量级工作流管理模型,并对其过程定义工具、工作流数据库、组织建模工具、工作流引擎与工作流管理器和业务系统等几个部件进行了详细描述。

In this paper, the involved concepts of workflow are introduced firstly, then the current situation of research and existing limitations in workflow area are overviewed. After that, a model of database--based lightweight workflow management system is put forward. Further more,the detail technological issues about it, including process modelling tools with form（s）, workflow database, organization modelling tools, workflow engine, worklist handler and business system, are discussed.
