Workflow Support Based on Mobile Data Stream Management System

This paper presents a mobile workflow support system based on mobile stream data management system. A stream data management system is a management system for data generated continually and is used for financial applications, network traffic systems, sensor networks. We developed a mobile data stream management system for Android devices (mDSMS) and applied vehicle data services and information sharing in collaborative works. DSMS not only matches execution of workflow but also facilitates the workflow descriptions to respond to external events in an organization. We present implementation of workflow support using mDSMS and its evaluation based on our development experience, comparison with a workflow pattern, and its performance.
