Here’s a review of some Open Source Workflow Engines that are written in Java:
Twister
Twister is a whole open source workflow (or business process management) solution, written in Java, using the WS-BPEL standard . It’s web services oriented but also supports other ways of interaction.
jBPM
jBpm is a flexible, extensible workflow management system. Business processes , expressed in a simple and powerfull language and packaged in process archives, serve as input for the jBpm runtime server. jBpm bridges the gap between managers and developers by giving them a common language : the jBpm Process definition language (jPdl).
Bossa
Bossa is a workflow engine written in Java. The engine is very fast and lightweight, uses a very expressive Petri net notation to define workflows, does not require a RDBMS and is very simple to use and to integrate with java applications.

It depends on your application which indicate the behavior of your development style
Which system are you talking about
it’s different from system to another one
and from environment to another .
