Workflow standard
Overview
ü Workflow process definition interface - XML Process Definition Language,
ü Use different tools to extend the processing of messages
ü XPDL is a general framework
Process definition and mutual conversion method
XPDL has developed a public conversion standard that enables internal conversion formats and standards of public conversion mutual diffraction;
The process definition conversion principle is shown below:
Metamodial model
In order to provide a common method to access and describe the workflow definition, WFMC develops a workflow definition metadata model.
entity
ü Workflow process definition
ü Workflow activity
ü Transfer information
ü Workflow participant statement
ü resource library
ü Workflow related data
ü System and operating environment settings
ü Data type and expression
package
ü is a container, packet management of entities of different general data
ü Store workflow defined entity public properties (author, version, state)
ü In the package, the entity definition range is full, and these entities can be defined by any workflow. These entities are: 1, Workflow Participant Description 2, Workflow External Application Description 3, Workflow Related Data;
