摘要： 针对工作流系统应用在企业知识管理时面临着流程数据整合不易、文件内容词汇关系不明确与存取控制不便等问题，提出一种基于本体的工作流知识管理系统架构。该系统采用XML作为流程文件交换与存储格式，利用本体论的方法将不同知识领域包含的概念及关联特性整合进工作流程中，设计基于角色继承的授权管理机制进行精确的文件存取控制。介绍工作流系统的体系架构，并分析工作流引擎的设计及实现机制。该系统架构为工作流程中的知识管理提供一种新的管理及控制模式，利用该架构开发的工程设计检验系统运作良好。

Abstract: Aiming at the problems of workflow system applying in knowledge management faces the uneasy data integration, implicit definition of vocabulary, and inflexible control of authentication access, this paper puts forward a workflow knowledge management system architecture based on ontology. The system uses XML as the format of file exchange and storage, integrates different domain knowledge’s concept and relation character into the workflow with the method of ontology, and designs an authentication management mechanism based on role inheritance to achieve accurate file access control. The paper introduces the architecture and analyses the design of workflow engine and implementation mechanism. The architecture provides a new control model for knowledge management in workflow. The engineering design inspection system using the architecture is well.

Key words: knowledge management, workflow engine, ontology
