Abstract

This paper outlines a particular approach to monitoring and responding to events by automatically starting activities and building sets of activities into office procedures that define long lived work sequences that many office workers could take part in. This is comprehensively achieved by integrating this support with an information server. Three aspects are discussed : the model, the language, the implementation.
