Wf-XML 2.0 and ASAP Demonstration, July 1Repeat of LIVE Demo at BPM Conference, San Francisco http://www.wfmc.org/standards/wfxml_demo.htm Owing to overwhelming demand, the Workflow Management Coalition (WfMC) is repeating this LIVEdemonstration of products that have implemented the Wf-XML 2.0 web protocol. We are inviting key individuals from workflow and BPM user organizations interested in observing this demonstration to join us on a LIVE webcast. Wf-XML is built upon OASIS ASAP, so it is simultaneously a demonstration of ASAP interoperability. *** OBSERVER INFORMATION *** An observer needs to do almost nothing: they are simply stating that they care that the demo takes place, and are interested in the results of the demo. An observer is not endorsing anything. They are essentially only signing up to be an audience. They do not have to travel anywhere, as the demonstration will be on the Internet, and can be accessed equally well from any location. We promise, in return, to provide you with the results of the demonstration as an emailed report. The REPEAT live demonstration will take place online Thursday July 1 at 12:00-12:45 Eastern Daylight Time PRE-REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED to be provided the login and conference details. Webcast is limited to first 500 callers OBSERVER information is here >> http://www.wfmc.org/standards/wfxml_demo.htm *** THE DEMONSTRATION *** The demonstration involves three vendors and two open-source initiatives in an e-commerce workflow scenario in which a client places an order with a retailer and the retailer relays the order to a factory. Confirmation and status information flows in the other direction, from factory to retailer to client, all after delays that reinforce the asynchronous behavior of the various services involved. Fujitsu Software, HandySoft and Staffware, which make BPM engines, believe the interoperability of Wf-XML and ASAP can help businesses to get a larger return on investment by automating BPM. In the demo, there will be a client that has several servers around the world. ASAP will be used to show a client calling a retailer to place an order. The second example will highlight the Wf-XML extension, illustrating what happens when the retailer is out of stock and must order new materials from the manufacturer. SIGN UP Information is here >> http://www.wfmc.org/standards/wfxml_demo.htm *** About WfMC *** The WfMC, founded in August 1993, is a non-profit, international organization of workflow vendors, users, analysts and university/research groups.
