Zusammenfassung: | The present invention relates generally to systems for automating document processing in a distributed computing environment. Specifically, the present invention relates to methods and apparatus for implementing work flow systems on an enterprise-wide scale.
Methods and apparatus are provided for a enterprise-wide work flow system that may encompass multiple geographically separate sites. The sites may be either permanently or transiently linked. A single computer network may accommodate multiple work flow systems and a single work flow system may be distributed over multiple local area networks. The system maintains the paradigm of one global queue per service and provides for individual work flow systems to export services to one another in an enterprise. |
