A framework for data-driven workflow management: Modeling, verification and execution

Abstract

In recent years, many data-driven workflow modeling approaches has been developed, but none of them can insure data integration, process verification and automatic data-driven execution in a comprehensive way. Based on these needs, we introduced, in previous works, a data-driven approach for workflow modeling and execution. In this paper, we extend our approach to ensure a correct definition and execution of our workflow model, and we implement this extension in our Framework Opus. © 2013 Springer-Verlag.
