Abstract

A workflow system allows defining criteria for an automated task agent to perform tasks for a participant automatically without input from the participant at the time the task is performed. Automated tasks are performed by an automated task agent according to the participant's history in performing similar tasks in the past. Tasks completed by automated task agents are displayed to a user in a manner that distinguishes automated tasks from manual tasks.
