The workflow instance state is superficially similar to the workflow diagram display problem, but the presence of multiple parallel invocations of any given process (or sub-workflow) makes the task harder. In effect it's a selective information reduction task - you want to let the user know what's happening, whether there are failures or critical path type bottlenecks without swamping her in too much information. There's a really hard problem here, with some good intermediate solutions and a really nice optimal solution that's definitely on the research side of things.
