Workflow in Spring

Spring is a framework that promotes a relatively new programming paradigm known as Inversion of Control. This article deploys Spring in a more general-purpose role as a simplistic workflow engine. A straightforward investigation into workflow is followed by the presentation of a Spring-based workflow API usable in basic workflow scenarios.

rating comment: Nice article, giving another idea of how to use the Spring framework. It gives a basic introduction to workflow as a programming topic, but most of the article is about implementing a workflow with Spring.
