Abstract

As Web applications take the centre-stage of today's businesses, core business processes are increasingly automated using Web technologies. We advocate agile model driven development (AMDD) for streamlining the development, and end-user development (EUD) for managing the evolution of Web-based workflow applications. In this paper, we will demonstrate how such approach is realised through the smart business object (SBO) technology and the lightweight business process flow (LBPF) engine we have developed. The synergy between the two enables a parallel mode of development where developers can generate and release the intended application within an extremely compressed timeframe, while business end-users can subsequently manage the evolution of their Web-based workflow applications in a controlled environment via Web-based tools.
