News-item:

WISE 1.0e (stable) / 1.0g (devel) [ Update ] [ Details ]
Update by: - September 20, 2001


The WISE package hails from NASA Software Research Labs. A fully-customizable workflow-management package. The WPL (WISE Programming Language) allows the sequence of stages that a task goes through to be configured in a completely flexible manner. In addition, roles with password-restricted role-privileges can be defined so that only certain individuals/groups can make changes, approve, advance, etc. any given task from stage to stage. The interface is entirely web-based, the project information is stored in an mSQL database. Includes ability to generate time-history graphs and summary bar charts. Since the interface is entirely web-based, tasks and reports can be accessed and managed from any operating system that supports a web browser.


Changes: Initial announce.

Status: Unmaintained.

Comments: I lost interest in WISE because I suddenly understood the right way of implementing the thing, and then I realized that this would take more time than I was willing to devote to it. It really needs a ground up re-write, while keeping the basic principles intact (because the basic principles are excellent; the code is just ugly). -- .
