Abstract :
Researching how to combine workflow with Agent in order to improve flexibility and self learning ability is a hotspot of researches because of the needs of the workflow technology and the characteristics of the agent technology with self-learningability. This paper introduces agent technology in workflow engine, designs a Workflow Engine Model on Multi-agent and analyzes the functions of each agent in the model. Finally, this paper analyzes briefly the communication method between the multiple agents.
