ABSTRACT:
WFMS execute a multitude of process models consisting of a network of potentially distributed activities. Within this structure is the implementation of events within WFMS like any other process activity. Thus events are implemented as event-activities, a special type of an activity within said WFMS. Such an event-activity can manage an event occurring internal or external to the WFMS.
