Inter-Enterprise Workflow Management Systems

چکیده
Electronic commerce is conceived as one of the major channels for performing commerce on a global scale, and the area is rapidly evolving.

In this paper we propose an extension of a standard workflow model to enable the description and control of the full life cycle of a supply chain.
