Duration Histograms for Workflow Systems
Abstract
Abstract Web-based interorganizational workflows need efficient time management. Variations of activity durations and branching distributions on or-split nodes make it necessary that we treat time management in workflows in a probabilistic way. We introduce the notion of duration histograms for capturing the available temporal information about workflow execution, define the necessary operations for computing timed execution plans for workflows and discuss the application of this new concepts for workflow design as well as time aware workflow execution management.
