/**
 * Interface exposing the BPEL "engine". Basically, this interface facilitates
 * dropping off events for processing by the engine. It is expected that
 * all of the methods of this interface are called only from a
 * "transactional context" (i.e. a transaction is associated with the thread
 * invoking the method). The exact nature of the transactional context is not
 * specified, however it must be the same context that is used by the BPEL DAO
 * layer implementation. If a method invoked from this interface throws an
 * exception of any kind, then the current transaction must be rolled
 * back.
