Abstract
Current researches on time constraints in workflow mainly focus on time-relevant process modeling and efficiency analysis based on the temporal attributes of processes and activities. This paper presents the concept of Temporal Workflow. Through extending and modifying the WfMC's Basic Process Definition Meta-model, a modified workflow meta-model is presented, and the temporal attributes of elements and their relations in it are analyzed in detail. Based on this, the primary elements in workflow are formalized, and time is introduced into workflow as a dimension. © Springer-Verlag 2004.
