Abstract :
Based on an analysis of related work about time exception in workflow, an algorithm for time exception handling of temporal workflow is presented in the paper. The algorithm is to meet the overall deadline of the case via an approach of cutting down the slack time of remaining activities, when there is a time exception. Meanwhile, details about the adjusting strategy for various kinds of routing constructions are also discussed. Finally, contrast experiment is used to show the effectiveness of the algorithm.
