Abstract
We propose Commune, a workflow management system that supports a mobile workforce. We introduce the "mini-workflow", a network-isolated subcomponent of a business workflow process. Mini-workflows enable subsets of business workflow to be off-loaded into mobile client environments by leveraging Web services. We describe how mini-workflows overcome the challenges of intermittent connectivity and we describe our BPEL-based implementation
