Extracting the workflow critical path from the extended well-formed workflow schema

Workflow Timed Critical Path Optimization

Approaches to shorten workflow execution time have been discussed in many area of computer engineering such as parallel and distributed systems, a computer circuit, and PERT chart for project management. To optimize workflow model structure of workflow, an approach with corresponding algorithms is proposed to cut timed critical path of workflow schema, which has the longest average execution ti...

Finding the critical path in a time-constrained workflow

The concept of the critical path has not been much addressed in a workflow even though it has been studied in many areas of computer engineering such as a directed acyclic graph. In this paper we first specify workflow control constructs which create workflow control structures used to describe business processes. And, we propose a method to find out the critical path in a time-constrained work...

effective workflow for optimization of intelligent well completions

intelligent wells provide the ability for monitoring and control of downhole environment of the wells. downhole monitoring is achieved through sensors while control is realized with downhole valves. recovery from intelligent wells can be improved by proper selection of candidate wells/fields and optimizing the number, location and performance of the installed interval control valves. design cri...

From Software Process to Workflow Process: the Workflow Lifecycle

Despite the great effort devoted to the development of Workflow models and Workflow Management Systems during the last decade, a strong foundation about workflow development is still to come. Assuming that a workflow is a complex software product, in this paper we argue that the principles and techniques of software development — in particular, methodological concerns— can help in the developme...
