Beginning WF Summary

Beginning WF: Windows Workflow in .NET 4.0 by Kristian Besley

Windows Workflow Foundation is a ground-breaking addition to the core of the .NET Framework that allows you to orchestrate human and system interactions as a series of workflows that can be easily mapped, analyzed, adjusted, and implemented.

As business problems become more complex, the need for a workflow-based solution has never been more evident. WF provides a simple and consistent way to model and implement complex problems. As a developer, you focus on developing the business logic for individual workflow tasks. The runtime handles the execution of those tasks after they have been composed into a workflow.

Beginning WF demonstrates, in an eminently readable and accessible style, how Microsoft's Workflow Foundation (WF) technology can be used in a wide variety of applications.

  • Loaded with lots of simple yet demonstrative sample projects
  • Very hands-on with practical "how-to" information
  • Indexed by feature so specific questions are easily answered
