In view of the characteristics and difficulties of service composition, taking particularities of enterprise product design and manufacture into consideration, in order to improve the efficiency of service composition for manufacturing integrated systems, a collaborative semantic web service composition framework based on abstract business process was proposed to construct the workflow by way of man-computer collaboration, and the key technologies involved in this framework such as service modeling, searching, binding and execution were analyzed in detail.

The recent advance in information technologies has the potential to greatly enhance product development, and to make distributed designers, engineers, manufacturers and customers work together over networks. This paper reviews related work on service-oriented architecture, distributed infrastructure and highlights the need to integrate service-oriented architecture technologies for meaningful and interactive collaborative design processes. This paper presents a service-oriented architecture implemented by web services for collaborative design. The collaborative workspace is presented to facilitate the design participants’ collaboration. The proposed architecture is applicable to different requirements of design participants and enhances design interaction during the product realization process.

Supply chain management integrates key business processes and facilities, involving end users and suppliers that provide products, services, and information. Supply chain integration can potentially add value to the stakeholders along product development and manufacturing life cycle as well as the customers in terms of cost, time, service level, quality, and risk. In the manufacturing industry, there are many attempts to develop methodologies, standards, and technologies to integrate various applications for product design and manufacturing. However, studies on integrating and aligning product design and manufacturing with other operations in supply chains are relatively lacking. In an integrated supply chain, information, applications, and services are shared and become available among supply chain members within and across organizational boundaries. Existing technologies and tools such as Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) infrastructures and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems do not provide a flexible and reusable solution to information sharing and application integration. This paper presents a prototype service oriented web-based system, SC Collaborator (Supply Chain Collaborator), which leverages web services, web portal, and open source technologies to provide a flexible, customizable, and economical tool for supply chain integration. The prototype system implements a service oriented portal-based framework and allows service orchestration according to processes. This paper presents the service oriented portal-based framework, the system architecture of SC Collaborator, and the schematic representation and implementation of process models with the system. The paper also illustrates the use of the SC Collaborator system to facilitate cross-functional, cross-departmental, and cross-organizational collaborations using a bus manufacturing scenario.
