SWAMP is a workflow processing platform. Workflows are processes with many people involved in many working steps. In a real world scenario these workflows are highly dynamic, but still many systems try to hardcode the business logic. That leads to raising efforts to adapt the system.
Here is where SWAMP steps in: The workflow is designed in a XML based meta language in one file which is read by SWAMP. Workflows can be built from different workflow 'patterns' like simple actions, decisions, selections, loops, but also custom code if required. That makes workflow creation very easy and quick. Moreover it provides flexibility to adapt the business logic quite easily if the requirements change.
SWAMP builds a GUI from the workflow definition file that guides different users through the whole process, sends notifications if required, assembles overview pages over all running processes and much more.
