Novel Model

Large industrial interoperability projects use syntax-based Enterprise Application Integration standards, such as XML Schema, to accomplish interoperable data exchange among enterprise applications. In this paper, we describe an approach to assess the potential impact of Semantic Web technologies on these standards and on testability of integration results when using these standards. The experimental approach includes an automated translation of an XML Schema-based representation of business document content models into an OWL-based ontology. Based on this ontology, we use the Semantic Web representation and reasoning mechanisms to validate ontological constructs and constraints in support of data exchange. We demonstrate novel model-based integration capabilities that go beyond the existing syntax-based approaches. These new capabilities are relevant when managing multiple enterprise ontologies derived from a common ontology.

Integrating enterprise system has become an issue of sharing information rather than transforming information due to the increasing complexity and the heterogeneity of the applications. The transition from application centric to integration centric enterprise application integration (EAI) requires methods and technologies that will enable and facilitate the definition of shared information. The use of ontologies Semantic Web and technologies can improve the existing EAI methods by providing a framework capable to define shared information. Ontologies based Enterprise application integration (ONAR) framework utilizes Semantic Web technologies to define shared information among heterogeneous systems. The present paper presents the utilization of ontologies for the formation of ONAR framework and its application for service oriented application integration (SOAI)

Service Oriented

In Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA), service descriptions are fundamental elements. In order to automatically execute SOA tasks, such as services discovery, it is necessary to capture and process the semantics of services. We review several Semantic Web Services frameworks that intend to bring semantics to Web Services. This chapter depicts some ideas from SOA and Semantic Web services and their application to enterprise application integration. We illustrate an example of logic-based semantic matching between consumer services and provided services, which are described in ontologies.

Xml Technologies

XML (eXtensible Markup Language) is an emerging technology that is extensively used in enterprise application integration and e-business collaborations. This paper presents an integrated case, SportsStuff.com (SSC), that exposes students to “native” XML technologies (those technologies that are based on the XML specification) and illustrates how they can support innovative e-business applications. First, the case introduces three native XML technologies that facilitate data exchange between networked applications: XML documents, XML Schema, and XSLT. Second, the case explores the uses of these technologies in an e-business collaboration scenario.

Integration Techniques

This paper described two kinds types of enterprise application integration based on coordinated decision centra:within the enterprise application and inter-enterprise enterprises application integration. To implement these two kinds of application system integration, the framework and the main functions of the integration platform for e-commerce environment was presented in the paper, the integration techniques by CORBA encapsulating within the enterprise and the data exchange techniques using XML between enterprises were proposed. With this supply chain application integration platform, the main business processes for supply chain management and other enterprise applications can be integrated selflessly through suitable procedures to apply supply chain integrative management in multiple enterprises.
