Workflow management systems (WFMS) are enjoying increasing popular- ity due to their ability to coordinate and streamline complex organizational processes within organizations of all sizes. Organizational processes are de- scriptions of an organization's activities engineered to fulfill its mission such as completing a business contract or satisfying a specific customer request.

Ranging from mere e-mail based calendar tools and flow charting tools to very sophisticated inte- grated development environments for distributed enterprise-wide applications and systems to support programming in the large, these products are finding an eager market and opening up important research and development op- portunities. In spite of their early success in the market place, however, the current generation of systems can benefit from further research and develop- ment, especially for increasingly complex and mission-critical applications.
