A Research On Web-based Workflow Management System

Workflow Technology, which can realize BPR (Business Process Re-engineering), business process simulation analyzing, business process optimizing, and business process management and integration, is ultimately the core technology of business process automation. Using Workflow method to model and analyze business process can standardize the business process in an enterprise and help to find out the unreasonable parts in the business process, furthermore, the new business process based on the model is a kind very important technology resource, which can help enterprise to implement the model of computer management information system. The business model of an enterprise, which is based on a clear analysis, can make it much more possible to implement ERP or other kinds of MIS. Workflow Technology is very significant for enterprises to promote management level, and to normalize and improve information automation.Object-Oriented Technology is presented in this paper to analyze WfMS under the environment of WWW, and 11 object classes are put forward to describe WfMS, which is tested by a sample.By using the method of multi-engine and the distributed structure, the WfMS model designed in this paper is adaptive to most requirement of enterprises. Especially with the rapid development of network technology, this kind of model based on the Internet/Intranet and distributed structure will play an very important role in enterprise.
