工作流程和流程图(如果有的话)有什么区别?
我正在研究如何可视化应用程序的流程。现在我发现了术语“工作流程”和“工作流程管理”,但它有点令人困惑。
当我进一步搜索时,术语“流程图”也出现了。
现在我的问题是,两者之间有什么区别,因为我看到这两者在相同的上下文中使用。
谢谢
I'm doing a study on how to visualize a process of an application. Now I found the term workflow and workflow management but it's a little confusing.
When I searched further the term flowchart also showed up.
My question is now, is there any difference between the two because I see those two used in the same context.
Thanks

“工作流程”是对一项工作如何进行的过程的定义应该做的。
流程图是用于描述处理的图。因此,工作流程可以用流程图来描述。
也许工作流程通常用流程图来描述,有些人可能会互换使用这两个术语。
这有帮助吗?

"A workflow" is a definition of a process for how an item of work should be done.
A flowchart is a diagram for describing a process. So a workflow can be described by a flowchart.
Perhaps it is the case that workflows are commonly described by flowcharts, that some people may use the two terms interchangably.
Does that help?
根据我有限的经验,我想补充一点,工作流程图的布局往往更加宽松。流程图极其严格、死板;每个步骤后面都必须有一个决策点(菱形)。那么:
A == B
? (其中==
是一个对/错问题)。如果为 TRUE,则继续处理 X;如果为 FALSE,则继续执行下一个决策点,B >= C
?。根据我有限的经验,工作流程要轻松得多。他们不一定有决策点,但他们经常有。基本上,在某些情况下,流程图的刚性不起作用,而工作流程图似乎具有这种灵活性。
您还必须记住您的目标受众。真正的流程图是如此严格,因为它们所代表的内容是如此严格。流程图是程序员非常常用的,软件开发不允许出现错误。
Based on my limited experience, I would add that Workflow diagrams tend to be more relaxed in their layout. Flowcharts extremely strict and rigid; every step must be followed by a decision point (a diamond). So:
A == B
? (where==
is a true/false question). If TRUE then proceed to process X; if FALSE proceed to next decision point,B >= C
?.Workflows, from my limited experience, are much more relaxed. they don't have to have the decision points but they often do. Basically, there are cases in which the rigidity of a flowchart just does not work and workflow diagrams seem to have that flexibility.
You also have to remember your target audiences. True flowcharts are so rigid because what they represent is so rigid. Flowcharts are very commonly used by programmers and software development leaves no room for error.
