OSWorkflow的核心是一个使用XML定义的描述符文件，下面是对OSWorkflow的描述符文件标签以及OSWorkflow基本概念的说明：
一、名词说明：
1. workflow 工作流
2. step 步骤
3. action 动作
4. result 执行结果
5. split 步骤分割
6. join 步骤合并
7. register 寄存器
8. functions 函数
9. conditions 条件
10. context 上下文
11. state 状态
二、标签及概念：
1. 一个工作流( workflow )可以包含多个step( 步骤 )。
2. 一个step可以有多个action( 动作 )。action可以被设置为自动执行，也可以是通过用户介入，而通过程序调用执行。
3. 一个action要至少有一个unconditional result和零个或多个conditional result(result是指action的执行结果)。
4. 如果你指定了多个conditional results，那么符合执行条件的第一个result将被执行，如果没有指定conditional results或者没有任何一个conditional results符合执行的条件，那么将执行unconditional result。
5. 一个result可以仍然使流程驻留在当前step，可以指向一个新的step，可以指向一个split(步骤分割)，还可以指向一个join(步骤合并)。在所述的所有情况下，workflow
的状态也可以改变(例如：workflow的状态是Underway,Queued和Finished)。
6. 如果一个result指向一个split，那么它所指向的split的属性是在splits的标签中描述的。
7. 一个split可以拥有一个或多个unconditional results，但是没有conditional results。unconditional results指向了从这个split中即将进入的steps。
8. register(寄存器)是一个全局变量，它可以被每个workflow处理，而且也可以用在functions(函数)和conditions(条件)中。
9. propertySet是一个存放持久型数据的map，它可以被当作全局的调用。
10. transientVars是用于存放临时变量的一个map，所有的functions、conditions都可以使用它。它包含所有的registers、user inputs、以及当前workflow的context(上下文)和state(状态)。它仅仅在一个workflow调用的生命期存在。
三、OSWorkflow例子程序中的描述符文件：
下面是OSWorkflow例子程序中的描述符文件，可以参考上面的描述与下面的描述符文件对比理解：
