Workflow Modeling

Announcements

For all sorts of questions/clarifications about subject matter, assignment, etc., use the newsgroup. You are responsible for checking the newsgroup and website regularly.

When -- and only when -- the newsgroup server is down, check the Blackboard site for announcements and discussions.

For an overview of the topics in this course, see the original ad for the course.

For more information about workflow and workflow engines, check the Workflow Resource page. You should also look at my notes on the dynamic action forms and validators.

This is a programming-intensive course that makes heavy use of Java. You should either know Java already, or know C++ and be a good learner of programming languages.

In this course, you will be required to:

• develop a standards-compliant workflow application using Struts
• submit detailed weekly progress and plan reports
• give a short but detailed technical presentation on a topic related to web application frameworks or business process modeling.

There are no exams.
