Abstract

At present, workflow management system is playing more and more significant role in information management and process manufacturing industry. Workflow engine is kernel of workflow system, which provides all kinds of services that drive workflow running. However, several kinds of distributed technologies need to be applied in design of workflow engine at present, which is inconvenient for developers to construct services. Along with the advent of WCF, an entirely new foundation product based on SOA, workflow engine can be founded using WCF programming technology, which offers a convenient and practicable solution for deployment of workflow engine.
