Abstract :
In workflow management system of multi-group collaborative work, scheduling conflict is common, which hinder smooth operation of workflow engine. In this regard, the author proposes a new conflict detection mechanism which support simultaneous multi-group collaborative workflow, in which conflict detection algorithm runs before simultaneous collaborative work to examine whether there is scheduling conflict, to ensure smooth operation of multi-group collaborative workflow.
