Abstract :
Focuses on transactional workflows, i.e., the advanced transaction technology required to (i) ensure the reliability of tasks in a workflow, and the correctness and reliability of concurrent workflows, and (ii) support the specification and management of extended transactions models. In addition, the author discusses research and development at GTE Laboratories to produce a Transaction Specification and Management Environment (TSME) that can satisfy such requirements. He also discusses the integration of DOM and TSME technologies
