Information Systems and draws the design of a social workflow platform that

everyday lives. Whenever a group of persons works together on a challenging or
multifaceted task, a social workflow begins. In textual form, such social
workflows are already described and shared in various Internet communities
which provide experiential knowledge for achieving different goals, in areas
like home repair, vacation trips and computer troubleshooting. The envisioned
platform enables its users to construct social workflows according to their
