Samenvatting
In the main, the attention of workflow researchers and workflow
developers has focussed on the process perspective, i.e., control-flow.
As a result, issues associated with the resource perspective, i.e., the people
and machines actually doing the work, have been largely neglected.
Although the process perspective is of most significance, appropriate
consideration of the resource perspective is essential for successful implementation
of workflow technology. Previous work has identified recurring,
generic constructs in the control-flow and data perspectives, and
presented them in the form of control-flow and data patterns. The next
logical step is to describe workflow resource patterns that capture the
various ways in which resources are represented and utilised in workflows.
These patterns include a number of distinct groupings such as
push patterns ("the system pushes work to a worker") and pull patterns
("the worker pulls work from the system") to describe the many ways
in which work can be distributed. By delineating these patterns in a
form that is independent of specific workflow technologies and modelling
languages, we are able to provide a comprehensive treatment of the resource
perspective and we subsequently use these patterns as the basis
for a detailed comparison of a number of commercially available workflow
management systems.
