On Using Blockchain Based Workflows

摘要

We have been involved in the development of several blockchain-based solutions that largely utilize workflows. Workflows are used to guide users from independent organizations to process and manage transactions, data and documents in a trusted, immutable, and transparent manner for all relevant entities on a given blockchain network. This work discusses our approach to automate the process of creating, updating, and using workflows for blockchain-based solutions. In particular, we present a workflow definition schema using existing templates. We also show how the workflow definition is used to automate the generation of graphical user interfaces and the possibility of generating associated blockchain smart contracts in the future.
