Abstract

We present the prototypical workflow management system Panta Rhei which was designed to support various types of workflows in an uniform and elegant way. The main characteristics of this system are its flexibility, the lean architecture, the integration in the Web, the transactional features and its support of process management. We discuss the basic concepts of the system, its architecture and its implementation.
