Abstract
A method for realizing jumps in an executing process instance can be provided. The method can include suspending an executing process instance, determining a current wavefront for the process instance and computing both a positive wavefront difference for a jump target relative to the current wavefront and also a negative wavefront difference for the jump target relative to the current wavefront. The method also can include removing activities from consideration in the process instance and also adding activities for consideration in the process instance both according to the computed positive wavefront difference and the negative wavefront difference, creating missing links for the added activities, and resuming executing of the process instance at the jump target.
