Abstract: A methodology of employing a binding for interfacing a business workflow process executable program to a real world implementation. The binding can be reduced to a programming language. A preferable programming language is XML (Extensible Markup Language). Separation of the business workflow processes and the binding allow for the same business workflow process to be implemented across a variety of different technologies. The binding maps ports and messages to corresponding units of codes and invocations of a particular technology being utilized for the modeling of the business workflow process. The binding provides a user with the ability to structure schedule messages, define the relationship of schedule ports to units of code, define the relationship of schedule actions to invocations, control the flow of data between messages, provide details of schedule conditionals and specify the interaction of the schedule with specific technology behaviors.
