Abstract
Embodiments include a system for tracing a collaborative workflow. The system includes an event collector and a transition engine. The event collector may be configured to receive data that represents an event of the collaborative workflow. The collaborative workflow has a local workflow part and a global workflow part. The transition engine may be configured to compute a new instance state of a model of the collaborative workflow. The new instance state represents an instance of the collaborative workflow obtained through the event of the collaborative workflow. The new instance state complies with rules of a local model of the local workflow part and with rules of a global model of the global workflow part.
