Developmenthistory

Workflowtechnologyoriginatedintheresearchworkinthefieldofofficeautomationinthemid-1970s,buttheemergenceofworkflowideasshouldhavebeenearlier.In1968,FritzNordsieckhadclearlyExpressedtheideaof​​usinginformationtechnologytoautomatetheworkflow.Researchworkrelatedtoworkflowinthe1970sincluded:theprototypesystemSCOOPdevelopedbyMichaelD.ZismanoftheWhartonSchooloftheUniversityofPennsylvania,andtheOfficeTalkseriesdevelopedbyClarenceA.EllisandGaryJ.NuttoftheXeroxPaloAltoResearchCenter.Thetestsystem,aswellasthe"monitoringsoftwarefailurereport"programonARPANETdevelopedbyAnatolHoltandPaulCashman.ThesystemsdevelopedbySCOOP,OfficetalkandAnatolHoltalluseacertainvariantofPetrinetsforprocessmodeling.Amongthem,SCOOPandOfficetalksystemsnotonlymarkedthebeginningofworkflowtechnology,butalsotheearliestofficeautomationsystems.

Inthe1970s,peoplewerefullofstrongoptimismaboutworkflowtechnology.Researchersgenerallybelievedthatnewtechnologiescouldbringhugeimprovementsinofficeefficiency.However,thisexpectationeventuallyfellthrough.Peoplehaveobservedsuchaphenomenonthatasuccessfulorganizationtendstocreativelybreakthestandardofficeprocessattherighttime;theintroductionofworkflowtechnologymakespeopleonlyobeythefixedprocessrigidly,whichultimatelyleadstolowofficeefficiencyandpeopleDisliketechnology.Thetechnicalreasonsforthefailureofworkflowtechnologyinthe1970sinclude:theuseofpersonalcomputersintheofficehasnotyetbeenacceptedbythesociety,networktechnologyisnotyetwidespread,anddevelopersstilldonotunderstandtheneedsanddefectsofgroupwaretechnology.

Thedevelopmentofcommercialsystemswithworkflowfeaturesbeganbetween1983and1985.Earlycommercialsystemsmainlycamefromtheimageprocessingfieldandthee-mailfield.Imageprocessingoftenneedstotransferandtrackimages,andtheworkflowjustcaterstothisdemand;theenhancede-mailsystemalsoadoptstheideaof​​workflow,improvingtheoriginalpoint-to-pointmailflowtofollowacertainflow.Onlyafewoftheseearlyworkflowsystemsweresuccessful.

Afterenteringthe1990s,therelevanttechnicalconditionshavegraduallymatured,andthedevelopmentandresearchofworkflowsystemshasenteredanewupsurge.Accordingtothesurvey,asof1995,therearemorethan200kindsofsoftwareclaimingtosupportworkflowmanagementorhaveworkflowfeatures.Workflowtechnologyisusedintelecommunications,softwareengineering,manufacturing,finance,banking,scientificexperiments,healthcare,shipping,andofficeautomation.

InAugust1993,theWorkflowManagementAlliance(WfMC),anindustrialorganizationforthestandardizationofworkflowtechnology,wasestablished.In1994,theWorkflowManagementAlliancereleasedaworkflowreferencemodelforinteroperabilitybetweenworkflowmanagementsystems,andsuccessivelyformulatedaseriesofindustrialstandards.

Theacademicresearchonworkflowtechnologyisalsoveryactive.Manyprototypesystemshavebeendevelopedinthelaboratory.,Correctnessverification,resourcemanagement,developmentprocessandotheraspectsoftheworkflowtechnologyarediscussed,andalargenumberofpapershavebeenwritten.
