The research on workflow meta-model based modeling of joint operation command process

Command process of Joint operations throughout the lifecycle of joint operations. For the dynamic development of the command process execution order and semi-automatic/ automated command process management, we introduce workflow technology and methods. In order to meet the dynamic variations of the process definition in the workflow system, this paper analyzes the dynamic characteristics of the workflow technology, which is based on the concept of joint operation, and proposes the mapping of the hierarchical decomposition model for the joint operation to the application requirements. According to the above study, the workflow process definition meta-model that was put forward by the Workflow Management Coalition (WfMC) has been improved in the paper. While the workflow process definition language (XPDL) is a kind of text description language that is based on the meta-model, thus the XPDL demands to be extended accordingly. These improvements and extension make the rectification of both the definition state and the running state process model more flexible. Through these improvements and extensions, the modification of the process model becomes more flexible. The workflow management system based on the improved meta-model is both flexible and fully embodies the dynamic characteristics of the workflow, which is more suitable for the workflow system and apply on a more complex command process.
