Abstract

Scientists of the environmental domains (biology, geographical information, etc.) need to capitalize, distribute and validate their scientific experiments. A multi-function platform will be an adaptable candidate for meeting the challenges. We have designed and implemented the MDweb platform [3] which is nowadays used in various environmental projects. Our main objective is to integrate a workflow environment. In this paper, an introduction to a three-level workflow environment architecture (static, intermediate, dynamic) is presented. We focus on the ”static” level, which concerns the first phase of constructing a business process chain, and discuss around the ”intermediate” level, which covers both the instantiation of a business process chain and the validation, in terms of conformity, of the generated chain.
