ABSTRACT:
For migrating a work flow in a workflow management system having at least one process instance executing an original process definition, each process instance is checked during the execution of the original process definition whether the process instance meets the migration condition. If the migration condition is met, the corresponding process instance is migrated to a modified process definition while executing the original definition.
