the traditional approach that leads to create steps in the process implicit in the code. This traditional
approach works fine, but requires a deep programming logic making the process difficult to change and execute.
Workflow engine is not a new technology; it came into existence in early 2000. In the market, several

workflow approach. So, defining different engines for different applications is a cumbersome task. To

applications. This is what the Windows Workflow Foundation (WF) performs. WF provides a common
workflow technology for all the windows-based applications, such as Microsoft Office 2007 and
Windows Share Point Services.
