This video explains the concept of selection autonomy as implemented in the Yet Another Workflow Language (YAWL). It demonstrates how users can either be granted the freedom to choose which of their allocated tasks to execute first or be constrained to follow a predefined execution order determined by the system. This mechanism allows organizations to balance user flexibility with process control requirements. A flash-based animation illustrates both scenarios. The video shows how selection autonomy can be enabled or restricted through user privileges configured in the YAWL control center, and how these settings influence the behavior of users’ work queues during workflow execution. The video is part of the basic YAWL tutorial series, which provides an introduction to the installation, configuration, and use of the YAWL Workflow Management System:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL4BZgFsmRzfSEP_8nCqHt3N2X_XzRNen2 This video corresponds to Video #76 of the YAWL Series.

From a conceptual perspective, the video relates to the Selection Autonomy pattern, as documented on the Workflow Patterns website:http://www.workflowpatterns.com/patterns/resource Additional theoretical background is provided in the book Workflow Patterns, published by MIT Press:https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262029827/workflow-patterns
