A method and apparatus for generating context-aware generic workflow applications is provided. The apparatus comprises: one or more generic workflow functional modules deployed on one or more workflow nodes of a workflow; a context-aware configuration storage device configured to store context-aware configuration data including context-aware logics; a context obtaining module configured, in response to the execution of the workflow on a workflow node, to obtain the current context of the workflow execution; a context-aware logic management module configured to retrieve context-aware logics matching the current context in the context-aware configuration data stored in the context-aware configuration storage device; wherein a relevant workflow functional module in the one or more generic workflow functional modules is configured to execute relevant operations according to the matched context-aware logics, thus generating a context-aware generic workflow application. The apparatus and method of the invention can generate generic workflow applications applicable to various workflows and contexts, which saves the developing and testing costs of workflow applications.
