A system and method for triggering deployment of a workflow are provided. The method includes issuing, to a first device (e.g., a server) from application software executing on a second device (e.g., a client computer), an instruction to execute a workflow previously deployed at the first device. The workflow is formed as a function of information associated with a graphical representation of the workflow. The application software may be, for example, software for one or more word-processing, spreadsheet, database, email, instant messenger, presentation, browser, calendar, organizer, media, image-display applications; file management programs and/or operating system shells. Alternatively, the application software may be or include a module associated with such application software. This module may include or be formed as or from one or more plug-ins, add-ons, applets, shared libraries, and/or extensions. |
