摘要
由于工作流管理和更普遍的业务流程管理(BPM)缺乏普遍接受的概念和正式基础,学术界和工业界都存在过多的流程建模和执行方法。工作流模式的引入提供了对业务流程规范中遇到的建模问题和需求的深入且独立于语言的理解。它们提供了对过程规范的各种方法的比较见解,并作为语言和工具开发的指导。YAWL (Yet Another Workflow Language)是一种新颖的、正式定义的工作流语言,它基于工作流模式和Petri网,从而充分利用了BPM领域的实践和理论见解。本章概述了这种语言及其相应的开源支持环境。
Due to the absence of commonly accepted conceptual and formal foundations for workflow management, and more generally Business Process Management (BPM), a plethora of approaches to process modelling and execution exists both in academia and in industry. The introduction of workflow patterns provided a deep and language independent understanding of modelling issues and requirements encountered in business process specification. They provide a comparative insight into various approaches to process specification and serve as guidance for language and tool development. YAWL (Yet Another Workflow Language) is a novel and formally defined workflow language based on workflow patterns and Petri nets, thus leveraging off both practical and theoretical insights in the field of BPM. This chapter provides an overview of this language and its corresponding open source support environment.
