WORKFLOW MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, WORKFLOW MANAGEMENT METHOD, WORKFLOW MANAGEMENT PROGRAM, AND RECORDING MEDIUM
First Claim
1. A workflow management system for managing a workflow constituted of plural hierarchically segment tasks, comprising:
- a storage unit that stores task information;
a calculation unit that acquires the task information from the storage unit and calculates a critical path of the workflow from information on structures of the plural tasks, dependence between the plural tasks, statuses of the plural tasks, and schedules of the plural tasks contained in the task information; and
a display control unit that causes the critical path calculated by the calculation unit to be displayed on a screen.
