Workflow Composition
Purpose: The ASKALON workflow composition tool is a graphical editor for the UML-based modeling of,
Figure 1: Main GUI |
Figure 2: Running a workflow |
|---|
Functionality: At present, the ASKALON workflow composition tool supports following UML diagrams,
- Activity,
- Collaboration,
- Deployment, and
- Class.
Features:
- Model checking
- Model traversing
- Easy to extend with new types of UML diagrams and modeling elements
- Implements Model View Control(MVC)
- Generation of multiple model representations (XML, C++)
- XML based configuration (menus, toolbars, ..)
- Platform independent
Implementation:
- Java programming language (J2SE 1.5)
Distribution:
- Teuta (the old AKSLON workflow composition tool) is distributed free of charge for educational and research purposes upon request. Until now we have received requests. In order to start the download procedure please click here.
- Click here to run the new ASKALON workflow composition tool (~ 30 MB, requires J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0) using JavaTM Web Start (Last update: 2008-09-06)
