Abstract

A computer implemented method for workflow synchronization is provided. The first step comprises initializing the execution of a plurality of workflows. The next step is providing synchronization logic in at least one of the plurality of workflows. In the third step the execution of a workflow is paused until the synchronization logic is complete. In the final step the execution of the plurality of workflows continues.
