Abstract

Nowadays, in many enterprises and so on, for the purpose of the efficiency improvement and the automation of the business, the "workflow management system of the business process" that a computer is highly used of is coming into wide use . At present, because workflow management system which is characteristic of each organization is introduced, though it is effective as a business support inside of a single organization, it is difficult to apply this management system to coordinate business among more than two organizations.As for this paper, it is related to Interworkflow system which supports business connection among multiple organizations which have different workflow management systems. We would like to propose Interworkflow system which consists of the following three sub-systems and has friendly user interface, and report on the fact that we have constructed an actual Interworkflow system that coordinates multiple workflow systems and confirm that it functioned effectively.Three-dimensional graphical modeling tool which users define Interworkflow. Translator and verifier which support constructing each workflow. Interworkflow administration system in distributed environment.
