Distributed object architectures (DCOM, CORBA, Java RMI) coupled with Internet and Intranet technology have a great impact on process-centered environments and distributed workflow management. Management of the workflow operations of each organisation in the interworkflow must be done in a distributed environment. An electronic commerce (EC) process is a business process and defining it as a workflow provides all the advantages that come with this technology. This paper describes the design of a model as well as an architecture to provide support for distributed advanced workflow transactions. The componentwise architecture of the system makes it possible to incorporate the functionality and thus the complexity only when it is actually needed. We discuss the application of transaction concepts to activities that involve integrated execution of multiple tasks over different processes. This kind of application is described as transactional workflows.
