SOAP을 이용한 이기종 워크플로우 관리시스템간 상호운용성

his paper describes the framework of integrating the business processes of different organizations through the interoperability of workflow management systems. In particular, this framework can be applied to developing B2B systems, in which each trade partner has its own heterogeneous workflow system on the Internet. We propose an approach to implementing an interoperable workflow system which can be integrated with other heterogeneous workflow systems through the four scenarios suggested by WfMC(Workflow Management Coalition), and we developed XML message-based prototype systems, which using SOAP(Simple Object Access Protocol), is applicable to standard e-business framework such as ebXML.
