The information management is a crucial mission for a virtual industry in such a competitive market environment. The typical characteristic of information management is distribution, autonomy and co-operation. Based on an on-going ESPRIT project (X-CITTIC), The author presents a distributed information management architecture for production planning and control in a virtual enterprises of semiconductor manufacturing. Object technologies are widely used in its design and implementation. A detailed structure of the components in the architecture, called information managers, is also suggested and introduced. Each information manager has three elements: a data object server, a database and a group of meta-objects. The information management can provide not only basic services (e.g. read and write) but also advanced services (e.g. notification, security control, subscription and data sending). Finally the present X-CITTIC information management system is detailed introduced.

Data dissemination and information management technologies for tactical environments are quickly becoming major areas of research for both military and civilian applications. Critical to the problem is the need for fully distributed information management technologies that are efficient, adaptive and resilient. In this paper, we introduce and discuss a new strategy for tactical data dissemination and processing based on distributed online learning. Starting from a formal description of the problem we introduce our proposed solution and its theoretical properties. We also present and discuss a number of simulation experiments for different data dissemination scenarios, and conclude the work with a discussion on how such techniques may be applied to critical e-government environments under different assumptions of service availability and information release policies.

The support of real collaborative virtual enterprise (VE) scenarios sets forward particularly interesting challenges in terms of distributed information management, regarding the proper sharing and exchange of information among preexisting autonomous enterprises. In order to address these challenges, it is necessary to achieve a comprehensive analysis of advanced information management approaches that can be applied in VE platforms. In this context, this chapter provides a representative survey of several VE-related information management standards, technologies, and existing approaches that can be applied to support future VE infrastructures.

Resumen   La gestión de la información geográfica se incorpora como una herramienta fundamental en diferentes procesos al interior de empresas, corporaciones regionales y otros. Los datos requeridos se clasifican como información geográfica por la componente espacial que las caracteriza y se presentan en dos modelos: vector y raster. Esta información se captura por medio de: radares, satélites, estaciones de medición, campañas de muestreo, entre otros y se comparte entre programas gracias a la interoperabilidad. La interoperabilidad en la gestión de información geográfica es un tópico que se aborda desde muchos frentes y por muchas organizaciones, principalmente el OGC, un consorcio a nivel mundial para el consenso de estándares relacionados con la gestión de información geográfica. Uno de los principales mecanismos de interoperabilidad abordados por el OGC y otras organizaciones es la implementación de servicios web para compartir información de manera transparente entre SIG, Globos Virtuales, Geoportales, y otros. Comprendiendo la pertinencia de los servicios web y la importancia del conocimiento generalizado de los estándares existentes para la implementación e integración de los mismos, en este artículo se realiza una reflexión sobre los servicios web para la gestión de información geográfica y se presenta un resumen gráfico usando esquemas preconceptuales. Palabras clave Interoperabilidad, OGC, Servicios Web, Sistemas de Información Geográfica.   Abstract The management of geographic information is incorporated as a fundamental tool in different processes within companies, regional corporations and others. The data required for these processes are classified as geographical information about the spatial component that characterizes them and come in two models: vector and raster. This information is captured by: radar, satellites, measuring stations, sampling campaigns, among others and shared between programs through interoperability. Interoperability in geographic information management is a topic that is addressed from many fronts and by many organizations, especially the OGC, a consortium worldwide for consensus standards related to geographic information management. One of the main mechanisms of interoperability addressed by the OGC and other organizations is the implementation of web services to share information seamlessly between GIS, Virtual Globes, Geo-portals, and others. Understanding the relevance of Web services and the importance of widespread awareness of the existing standards for the implementation and integration of them in this article reflects on Web services for managing geographic information using a summary graph using pre-conceptual schemas.Keywords Geographic Information Systems, Interoperability, OGC, Web Services

Real time impact in many applications is the subject of a recent field of studies in information systems. Web services are a solution for the integration of distributed information systems that are autonomous, heterogeneous and auto adaptable to the context. This impact can resolve many problems in different systems based on Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and web services. In this paper, the authors are interested in defining an approach to provide the different needs of self-adaptability of SOA to the context based on workflow, define the real time goal in their approach and show the feasibility and performance evaluation of their approach in an ambulance trajectory case study.
