| Featured Topic: | Introduction to Windows Workflow Foundation - Presented By Sam Gentile |
| Additional Information: | Until recently, Windows developers who wished to use Workflow in
their applications were forced to look at a variety of "big gun" solutions
such as BizTalk Server and K2 among others. Windows Workflow (WF) is part of
the recently released Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0. WF provides one common
workflow foundation for all of Windows. In this talk, Sam will provide an
introduction to Windows Workflow showing how the Runtime works in running
Activities that you can create yourself. In addition, Sam will cover using
the Graphical Designer to edit Workflows and how to host the Designer in
your own applications.
