Abstract

Workflows have become a popular technique for describing processes in many different application domains, including Computer Aided Engineering (CAE). State-of-the-art workflow languages lack the necessary modularization techniques and data flow capabilities to express processes in a way that facilitates their design, evolution and reuse. In this paper, we aim to tackle this problem by presenting a conceptual framework for advanced modularization and data flow in workflow systems, which is independent of specific modeling approaches and technologies.
