Abstract

No matter what type of area, application,operating system or programs is used workflow technology isused to enhance it to make work user friendly & simple. Inorder to adequately support the execution of business processesin an increasingly turbulent world with shorter cycle times,workflow management systems must provide higher supportfor flexibility by easy & simple ways. When applying businessprocess reengineering the significance of workflow technologyhas been now observed to a great extent. Workflow technologyis currently being deployed in quite diverse domains. However,the element of change is present in some degree and form inalmost all domains. A workflow implementation that does notsupport the process of change will not benefit the organizationin the long run. Change can be manifested in different forms inworkflow processes. In this paper, we first study workflow in itsdynamic, adaptive & flexible kinds of processes. Here, we cansay that flexibility is the ability of the workflow process to runon the basis of a loosely, or partially coupled model, where thefull definition of the model is made at runtime, and may beunique to each instance of execution.
