of asynchronous interactive computation, complementing process algebras as a
standard model for synchronous computation. Open workflow nets are a most
useful starting point as a representation technique for asynchronous interactive
computation, as they provide a lot of techniques to effectively analyze the most
important properties of asynchronous interactive systems. In their given form,
open workflow nets stick to control flow of services. Data and data dependent
behavior can easily be incorporated, extending the formalism as usual in high
level Petri nets.
