碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 資訊工程系 === 89 === Business processes are often complex and varying. Workflow technologies help people to minimize error and delay in the progress of a process within an enterprise. In this paper, we discuss the design and implementation of a workflow management system, AgentFlow. There are four main components in this WFMS, including PDE, FormDesigner, FlowEngine and Agenda. PDE is a graphical editor for constructing process definition. FormDesigner takes the responsibility to integrate software components for building application forms. FlowEngine provides process automation, legacy system integration, tasks tracking and monitoring, and execution feedback for process enactment. Agenda supports a user interface and combines some group software.
