Abstract
An increasing number of software developers are turning to workflow to separate the logic and the control aspects in their applications, thus making them more amenable to change. However, in spite of recent efforts to standardize and provide reusable workflow components, many developers build their own. This is a challenging endeavor and involves solving problems which seem incompatible with the object paradigm and current object-oriented programming languages. In the context of an object-oriented workflow framework, this paper demonstrates a novel approach that resolves this impedance mismatch with techniques drawn from programming language theory. This successful cross-pollination narrows the gap between the results of decades of research in programming languages and developers working hard to cope with change.
