Workflows are activities involving the coordinated execution of multiple tasks performed by different processing entities, mostly in distributed heterogeneous environments which are very common in enterprises of even moderate complexity. In current commercial workflow systems, the workflow scheduler is a single centralized component. A distributed workflow enactment service on the other hand should contain several schedulers on different nodes of a network each executing parts of process instances. Such an architecture would fit naturally to the distributed heterogeneous environments. Further advantages of distributed enactment service are failure resiliency and increased performance since a centralized scheduler is a potential bottleneck.

Design and implementation of a distributed workflow management system: METUFlow
Dogac, A; Gokkoca, E; Arpinar, S; Koksal, P; Cingil, I; Arpinar, B; Tatbul, N; Karagoz, P; Halıcı, Uğur; Altinel, M (1998-01-01)
Workflows are activities involving the coordinated execution of multiple tasks performed by different processing entities, mostly in distributed heterogeneous environments which are very common in enterprises of even moderate complexity. Centralized workflow systems fall short to meet the demands of such environments.
Evaluation of toolkits for visualizing information about performance of earthwork activities on construction job sites
Atasoy Özcan, Güzide (null; 2010-06-30)
Project team members interact with large multivariate datasets while monitoring the performance of construction projects. The analyses of such datasets are traditionally performed with statistical methods and usage of 2D graphics with x-y coordinates. However, these methods are disadvantageous compared to multi-dimensional information visualization, which can provide patterns of unprocessed data in a more descriptive and clear way. In order to provide support for visualization of data, several toolkits with...
Comparative evaluation of command distribution via DDS and CORBA in a software reference architecture
Duran, Mustafa Berk; Bilgen, Semih; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2014)
Communication between modules in distributed system architectures plays a crucial role in proper system operation. Therefore, selection of the method for the communication of software running on di erent platforms becomes important. Two of the alternatives for data distribution are the Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA) and Data-Distribution Service (DDS). In this study, e ects of the selection on the Overall software quality and performance are investigated for real-time embedded systems dev...
An efficient transitive closure algorithm for distributed databases
Toroslu, İsmail Hakkı (1993-01-01)
© 1993 IEEE.Because most of the recognizable queries in deductive databases can be transformed into transitive-closure (TC) problem, the development of efficient algorithms to process the different forms of TC problems within the context of large database systems has recently attracted a large amount of research efforts. However, the parallelization of the computation of TC is still a new issue and there are only a few and recent parallel TC algorithms. Most of these parallel algorithms mere developed for s...
Concurrency control in distributed databases through time intervals and short-term locks
Halıcı, Uğur (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 1989)
A method for concurrency control in distributed database management systems that increases the level of concurrent execution of transactions, called ordering by serialization numbers (OSN), is proposed. The OSN method works in the certifier model and uses time-interval techniques in conjunction with short-term locks to provide serializability and prevent deadlocks. The scheduler is distributed, and the standard transaction execution policy is assumed, that is, the read and write operations are issued contin...
