Introduction to LEADTOOLS Windows Workflow Foundation (WF)

Show in webframe

Windows Workflow foundation is a .NET 3.0 technology which allows developers and IT administrators to create workflow applications for Windows Vista, XP, and 2003 server. A workflow application is a software application which coordinates and manages individual units of work, encapsulated as activities. Activities can be chained together to automate one or more processes. These processes are usually business-related, but can be any process that requires a series of steps that can be automated via software including document archival, order processing, inventory control, and more.

Windows Workflow Foundation supports the high demands of today's automated systems by offering a robust workflow engine. The framework allows for multiple engines within a single application as well as multiple workflows within a single engine. Since the engine itself requires some type of host, they can be executed from several types of applications including command line, win-form, windows and web service, and ASP.NET web sites. Applications can be created solely using the workflow graphical user design interface, code behind files (C#, VB.NET), or a combination of both.

The LEADTOOLS Windows Workflow offering includes WF activities for file loading and saving, TWAIN and WIA scanning, image processing, document image processing and clean-up, reading and writing barcodes, and Optical Character Recognition (OCR). These new activities can be used in any application framework that supports Windows WF such as SharePoint and Microsoft CRM.
