چکیده

With the rise of global networks like the Internet the importance of workflow environments is growing. Especially the combination with software agents allows to counter deficiencies of traditional client/server based workflow systems. In this setting new trends in hardand software such personal digital assistants (PDAs) and wireless technologies cause a change in the execution of workflow tasks. Therefore, this paper introduces the AWA/PDA prototype which combines a PDA with an agent-based workflow system. The pros and cons of PDA-based task execution are discussed in this setting, and the technical details of the prototype are presented.

Architectural Plan for Constructing Fault Tolerable Workflow Engines Based on Grid Service

In this paper the design and implementation of fault tolerable architecture for scientific workflow engines is presented. The engines are assumed to be implemented as composite web services. Current architectures for workflow engines do not make any considerations for substituting faulty web services with correct ones at run time. The difficulty is to rollback the execution state of the workflo...

Interorganizational Workflow Execution Based on Process Agents and ECA Rules

Flexibility, adaptation and distribution have been regarded as major challenges of modern interorganizational workflow. To address these issues, this paper proposes an interorganizational workflow execution framework based on process agents and ECA rules. In our framework, an interorganizational workflow is modeled as a multiagent system with a process agent for each organization. The whole exe...

Each MAS adopts a hierarchical organizational structure composed by an EnacterAgent, which is responsible of the activation and monitoring of the workflow, one or more ManagerAgents, which are responsible of the execution and control of the workflow/subworkflows ...
