A Constrained Object Model for Configuration Based Workflow Composition
  Automatic or assisted workflow composition is a field of intense research for
applications to the world wide web or to business process modeling. Workflow
composition is traditionally addressed in various ways, generally via theorem
proving techniques. Recent research observed that building a composite workflow
bears strong relationships with finite model search, and that some workflow
languages can be defined as constrained object metamodels . This lead to
consider the viability of applying configuration techniques to this problem,
which was proven feasible. Constrained based configuration expects a
constrained object model as input. The purpose of this document is to formally
specify the constrained object model involved in ongoing experiments and
research using the Z specification language.
