Mapping Abstract Complex Workflows onto Grid Environments
"... In this paper we address the problem of automatically generating job workflows for the Grid. These workflows describe the execution of a complex application built from individual application components. In our work we have developed two workflow generators: the first (the Concrete Workflow Generator ..."

The Application of Petri Nets to Workflow Management
, 1998
"... Workflow management promises a new solution to an age-old problem: controlling, monitoring, optimizing and supporting business processes. What is new about workflow management is the explicit representation of the business process logic which allows for computerized support. This paper discusses the ..."

the use of Petri nets in the context of workflow management. Petri nets are an established tool for modeling and analyzing processes. On the one hand, Petri nets can be used as a design language for the specification of complex workflows. On the other hand, Petri net theory provides for powerful analysis
An Overview of Workflow Management: From Process Modeling to Workflow Automation Infrastructure
- DISTRIBUTED AND PARALLEL DATABASES
, 1995
"... Today’s business enterprises must deal with global competition, reduce the cost of doing business, and rapidly develop new services and products. To address these requirements enterprises must constantly reconsider and optimize the way they do business and change their information systems and appl ..."

commercial workflow technology and extend the scope and mission of workflow management systems to support increased workflow automation in complex real-world environments involving heterogeneous, autonomous, and distributed information systems. In particular, we discuss how distributed object management
Crowdsourcing Complex Workflows under Budget Constraints
"... We consider the problem of task allocation in crowdsourc-ing systems with multiple complex workflows, each of which consists of a set of inter-dependent micro-tasks. We propose Budgeteer, an algorithm to solve this problem under a bud-get constraint. In particular, our algorithm first calculates an ..."

The SWISS-MODEL Workspace: A web-based environment for protein structure homology modelling
- BIOINFORMATICS
, 2005
"... Motivation: Homology models of proteins are of great interest for planning and analyzing biological experiments when no experimental three-dimensional structures are available. Building homology models requires specialized programs and up-to-date sequence and structural databases. Integrating all re ..."

Improving Performance of Complex Workflows: Investigating Moving Net Execution to the Cloud
"... Abstract. In this paper we propose and discuss mechanisms and implementation issues for moving the execution of computation-and timeconsuming workflows into the Cloud. These complex workflows are specified by Petri nets, more precisely reference nets using the Renew tool. We believe that Cloud tech ..."

HTSN: A complex workflow model based on colored Petri net
, 2004
"... Traditional workflow models have obvious shortcomings in describing complex workflows. Such complexity is due not only to the hierarchical property of business process, but also to the complicated dependencies among tasks. In this paper, we first introduce a conceptual task model based on UML class ..."

Ontology-Extended Component-Based Workflows-A Framework for Constructing Complex Workflows from Semantically Heterogeneous Software Components
- In 2nd International Workshop on Semantic Web and Databases
, 2004
"... Abstract. Virtually all areas of human endeavor involve workflows-that is, coordinated execution of multiple tasks. In practice, this requires the assembly of complex workflows from semantically heterogeneous components. In this paper, we develop ontology-extended workflow components and semanticall ..."
