Groupware (WorkGroup) Vs. Workflow

Groupware, or workgroup computing, focuses on the information being processed and enabling users to share information. Workflow, on the other hand, emphasizes the importance of the process, which acts as a container for the information. Workflow combines rules, which govern the tasks performed, and coordinates the transfer of the information required to support these tasks. This is "process-centered" rather than "information-centered." (Illustration courtesy of Delphi Consulting Group, Inc.)
