摘要
面对复杂多样的应用环境,灵活性和适应性成为工作流技术研究的重点,Agent技术可以被用于提高工作流实现的灵活性。使用元对象方式定义了工作流的元过程,引入多Agent技术到工作流管理系统中,利用Agent的智能性、移动性来实现分布式工作流系统集成,同时,Agent的智能性和合作性能够让工作流的实现具有更好的弹性。提出了一个基于多Agent的工作流管理系统框架,并基于一个通用的移动Agent平台(Aglet)实现了基于多Agent的灵活性工作流机制的原型。
In complex and diversified application context, flexibility and scalability are one of the key issues ofworkflow technology. Using methodology ofmeta-object to define workflow process, by importing multi-Agent of technology to workflow management system, how to fulfill the integration of distributed workflow system is described. Furthermore, the character of intelligence and collaboration of Agent also can bring workflow system more flexibility. Finally, as a result of methodology above, an architecture based on multi- Agents of workflow management system is given to show how Multi-Agent work together, a typical example is shown on a general mobile Agent platform named Aglet to discuss the key technology of mechanism of flexibility workflow based on Agent.
