A method includes: first creating determination information on whether or not the second file is derived from the first file based on a file name or file content of a first file to which writing is performed by a first job and a file name or file content of a second file from which reading is performed by a second job; second creating predecessor-successor information indicating a predecessor-successor relationship between the first job and the second job based on the determination information; and outputting the predecessor-successor information in a manner that allows an administrator to keep track of the predecessor-successor relationship between the first job and the second job.

Method, apparatus, and storage medium

A first executing unit executes, among tasks included in a first workflow, a first task group including one or more tasks using a resource. When a task included in the first task group is stopped, a rollback processing unit restores the resource to its former state prior to the execution of the first task group. After the resource is restored to the former state prior to the execution of the first task group, a second executing unit starts executing, among tasks included in a second workflow, a second task group including one or more tasks using the resource.

Apparatus and method for controlling execution workflows

A control unit of a workflow control apparatus identifies, among tasks included in a plurality of workflows, tasks using the same resource based on workflow definition information, and determines the execution sequence of the identified tasks based on the content of each of the identified tasks defined in the workflow definition information. The control unit identifies, among the identified tasks, one or more tasks whose execution is omissible based on the content of each of the identified tasks and the execution sequence of the identified tasks.
