In this work, we propose a novel e-business architecture that takes into account the specific needs of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and present a model-driven and highly adaptive approach that facilitates the automation of cross-organizational business processes. Parts of the ebXML standard are leveraged for the initialization of business relationships and for ensuring semantic interoperability,...
The conceptions of the Collaboration and Collaborative Effect are introduced in this paper at the beginning, and then we will give the meaning of the collaborative E-Business and present the functions it should possess. Based on these statements, we will point out the deficiencies of the BPEL4WS ebXML and RosettaNet E-Business standards that can realize collaboration among corporations to a certain...
In business-to-business e-commerce, traditional electronic data interchange (EDI) approaches such as UN/EDIFACT have been superseded by approaches like web services and ebXML. Nevertheless, a precise and common semantic definition of business documents exchanged is needed. In order to become independent from a transfer syntax, we prefer defining the documents as platform independent models. An approach...
UN/CEFACT's modeling methodology (UMM) is used to develop business collaboration models independent of the IT-platform. The information being exchanged is modeled by class diagrams. It is expected that later on these class diagrams are mapped to business document standards. Since it is hard to predict which standards will be dominant in the future, we do not propose direct mappings from UMM business...
In this paper, we summarize our research results obtained through the COE program. Our topics are classified into two categories. One is access control of XML documents, and the other is business rule processing for e-commerce. The former is dealing with various aspects of regulating access to XML documents, so that unauthorized access to data can be prevented. The latter is dealing with formal treatment...
The XML-based e-business specifications are the main stream in B2B (business to business) field, and the ebXML (electronic business XML) specification is the most promising industry-defined XML schema. This paper addresses service-oriented business integration based on ebXML. It introduces the evolvement of ebXML and presents how ebXML technologies enable enterprises to collaborate at the business...
This paper is focused on analyzing business processes integration of third-party logistics service providers (3PLs) in e-commerce. 3PLs are often selected to take charge of the logistics design, delivery, storage, and transportation in a supply chain with their professional and value-added services. This paper establishes a framework of 3PLs business processes, which includes strategic processes,...
An ever-increasing trend in today's logistics firms is to set up intelligent scheduling system. This paper focuses on enhancing the intelligence and science of real-time optimizing scheduling of logistics distribution for e-commerce based on GIS, and discusses how to process logistics distribution knowledge visually in GIS. A model and mapping solution of logistics distribution knowledge in GIS is...
Support for negotiations is an important issue in today's collaborative commerce (c-commerce) research. Based on the analysis of state of the art of negotiation support system, and aiming at the environment of c-commerce, we present a Web based negotiation support model in this paper. Firstly, we provide a framework for c-commerce. Then, we develop the Web based negotiation support model for c-commerce...
Data about products and services is of paramount importance in most inter-organizational business processes. For business-to-business (B2B) scenarios, a great number of XML-based message specifications are available, which cover various processes and types of transactions. These specifications support the respective data exchange tasks by providing a common representation for products and services...
Improving the reusability of ontology is recognized as increasingly important due to the prevalence of OWL research and applications. But there exists no convincing methodology and tool support in this direction yet. In this paper, we apply ideas from the research and practice with software product lines in order to explore this issue. The ontology is developed and managed according to the commonalities...
Collaborative B2B e-commerce provides enterprises with the necessary level of flexibility and efficiency to retain competitiveness under the increasingly turbulent business environment. Widely accepted XML-based frameworks like RosettaNet may be utilized to provide generic inter-enterprise B2B infrastructure. This paper presents an innovative approach towards utilizing RosettaNet in combination with...
E-commerce is becoming more and more prevalent in modern business because of its capability in automatic transaction and low cost. A reliable e-commerce system must have the capability in handling a large quantity of heterogeneous information without a centralized control. Normally, agents are required in this type of e-commerce system. This paper presents a Java-based dynamic multi-agent infrastructure...
Electronic commerce is an Internet-based business transactions performed electronically by individuals, companies, corporations and governments utilizing information and communication technologies. The most important obstacle to further expansion for e-commerce has been the lack of adequate security protections. When sending secure data via the Web, four items, no provided by Internet, are needed:...
Electronic ordering (e-ordering) services are fundamental in the provision of B2B e-commerce. The contemporary e-ordering implementations are expensive vary in terms of the underlined technologies, creating important interoperability, security and privacy problems. In this paper we capture the security and privacy requirements of the e-ordering service and we present an e-ordering system based on...
This paper introduces a general data model, which fits to the demand of storing and processing changeable data structure in e-business. The main idea is to set up a changeable entity storing model by improving the relational data storing model. Using this model, we can store the various types of data without altering the metadata of model. In the model description and processing, it involves technologies...
Business-to-business e-commerce is emerging as trading parties are attempting to integrate their heterogeneous business processes and automate exchange of their services. To be able to collaborate, heterogeneity cross-organisational business processes needs adaptation of existing concepts for business process management. A shared ontology can encapsulate heterogeneity in business process model and...
Despite the emergent business needs and technical efforts by both industrial and research communities, e-business market intelligence (EMI) still faces many obstacles hindering its successful mining, deployment and sharing, including lack of scaleable and transferable data source, incapability to integrate heterogeneous EMI data, and lack of highly automatic and universally compatible binding techniques...
