Abstract

Through managing and controlling workflow by workflow management system, computerized business processes can be achieved, and enterprises can get a method to realize better management. This paper focuses on existing workflow management system bugs in the collaboration, discusses the combinability between workflow management system and CSCW, and puts forward a work-strategy in the workflow collaboration. This paper refers to Workflow Reference Model which is designed by Workflow Management Coalition. We have designed a CSCW-based workflow management system. This system is based on a knowledge library, uses the rules and knowledge in the knowledge library to realize the workflow collaboration. This system also applies to the area of stock to effectively solve the problem that the workflows cannot work collaboratively in the current stock system.
