Hi Jacob,
Which workflow engine were you thinking of using?
I imagine the engines would work by your code calling methods on them. i.e. you would use a library, then import the classes and call methods on them.
I had a little experience with jBPM. You defined your processes in an xml file (which was uploaded to the db). The engine then gave you TaskInstances, ProcessInstances, etc. and had support for JAAS (to manage authentication).
Perhaps look it up and see if it will meet your needs?
