State Chart XML (SCXML) is currently a Working Draft published by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). SCXML provides a generic state-machine based execution environment based on Harel State Tables. SCXML is a candidate for the control language within multiple markup languages coming out of the W3C (see Working Draft for details). Commons SCXML is an implementation aimed at creating and maintaining a Java SCXML engine capable of executing a state machine defined using a SCXML document, while abstracting out the environment interfaces.
Imhotep is a declarative process framework useful for construction of "workflow" scenarios ranging from lightweight state-event-response logic (for example, the typical process logic behind a wizard dialog), to long-running persistent and failsafe workflows.
Imhotep supports visual definition of both process and routing of work to be performed by processing agents.
Imhotep comprises process execution, work-router, and persistent timer frameworks, each of which can be used independently for a wide variety of tasks.
Zebra is a workflow engine - originally developed to fill in the gaps in some commercial and open source workflow engines. The key differences between it and other workflow systems are
* Able to model all the workflows described in workflow patterns
* An easy to use GUI designer
* Interfaced persistence layer
* OO Design
* Integration component for Turbine web applications
CuteFlow is a webbased document circulation tool. Users are able to define "documents" which are send step by step to every station/user in a list.
It's an electronical way for doing (i.e. internal) document circulations.
A document can be assembled from input fields that could be filled by the receiver of the document. So after a completed circulation you will have a completely filled document. Also Attachments to the document are possible (i.e. for illustration material).
