Abstract

Workflow modeling has received more attention in recent years since the publication of standards by Workflow Management Coalition in 1995. In this paper, we give a brief introduction to what workflow is then discuss how workflow analysis may help facilitate standard analysis methodologies such as traditional analysis and the object-oriented analysis. An example is given to illustrate the usefulness of the workflow as an added system analysis tool.
