Abstract :
A method to improve functions of a workflow management system of PDM, including monitoring, counting, analyzing and reporting, is put forward. The depth-first search method is used to recognize closed loops and the method of draw-feedback-intervention is proposed to figure them. The method is also available and effective for improving other workflow management systems of PDM.
