Abstract
This paper provides a formal foundation for distributed workflow executions. The state chart formalism is adapted to the needs of a workflow model in order to establish a basis for both correctness reasoning and run-time support for complex and large-scale workflow applications. To allow for the distributed execution of a workflow across different workflow servers, which is required for scalability and organizational decentralization, a method for the partitioning of workflow specifications is developed. It is proven that the partitioning preserves the original state chart's behavior.
