摘要
Current research in the flexibility of workflow management systems covers many aspects of this technology. The focus of this paper is primarily on the practical capabilities of workflow management systems in handling preferred work practice while dealing with many short duration activities. It is motivated by the requirement of merging or grouping work items by one performer to achieve work performance enhancements by avoiding unnecessary communication with the system but still executing the required activities. The paper proposes a new function to group activity instances for a given process, investigates the impact, benefits, and potential implementation of such of extended functionality.
