With the advancement of information technology and business transformation, an enterprise has to be adaptive to expand its infrastructure and collaborate with its internal and external business processes to make more profits from its value chain. As an enabling technology, Web services provide a standard means to allow heterogenous applications to communicate with each other using Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). The standard interface description language and communication mechanism of Web services are the keys to build a modularized and adaptive e-business infrastructure that can adjust to the changing environments. In this chapter, we will introduce how to use Web services and Grid services to build adaptive e-business infrastructure for intelligent enterprise. Specifically, we will introduce a conceptual architecture of building adaptive e-business infrastructure using Web services. Then we will present an overview of Web services creation and invocation, federated Web services discovery and Web services flow composition. After that, a concept of universal Grid service is introduced for enabling Open Grid Services Architecture to support business process integration and management. At the end of this chapter, we will conclude by introducing our vision on the future adaptive e-business infrastructure for intelligent enterprise.

This chapter summarizes the most relevant results that grid research achieved in the last decade, it presents the actual issues of the topic, and it outlines how current and future results from this area can contribute to smart organizations. At the first place the basic goal of the Grid is presented and its state-of-the-art, service-based realization is discussed. This global infrastructure will one day connect together diverse types of hardware and software elements, abstracting them out as intelligent autonomous agents that can discover and collaborate with each other on demand. The middle part of the chapter introduces two potential middleware technologies that service grids can be built on. They are the Web services-based open grid services architecture (OGSA) and Jini. The final part of the chapter presents the future of service grids and the important role these flexible infrastructures will probably have in the life of smart organizations.

In improving global business economics, business integration has become a key issue for many companies to extend business market by integrating and streamlining processes both internally and with partners, cost effectively. To address this issue, whole marketplace has emerged for efficient software solution that can help to achieve improved business integration for improving global business economics, which is referred as EAI. Originally EAI was only focused around integrating ERP with other applications within enterprise but now it is generally used as a catch-all term to cover all the other aspects of global business integration. Major EAI approaches and evolution of enabling technologies ranging from EDI to Web Services and XML-based process integration are analyzed to provide cost effective, flexible, scalable and adaptable global EAI framework. Solution comprises the challenge of efficiently integrating diverse business processes and data across the enterprises to improve global business economics, while allowing the organizations to keep pace with and respond to market changes.

Message Structure

Business processes which are the set of logical tasks related to fulfil some greater purpose. These tasks must be performed in sequence according to the business rules. SOA reuses services to automate a business process using a standard interface and message structure. BPM, based on workflow technology, enterprise application integration and XML technologies, manages the enterprise from the perspective of business processes. In software development there is a gap between the implementers andthe users/customers in their understanding of the system. SOA is the driver for minimizing the gap between business analysis and IT development. The idea of Business Processes based on web services stem from the thought that a Business Process can be composed from one or more web services. Service orchestration should be flexible and adaptable to meet changing Business Process requirements. Separating the business process logic from the service components promotes flexibility. Choreography languages are WS-CDL, Let’s Dance, and BPEL4Chor.The purpose of using several choreographies simultaneously is to establish a cross-enterprise organized way of collaborating with services.

The City

Semarang City Public Works Department is a state-owned enterprise that works in the area of public services in the city of Semarang. Most of the technological conditions in the Public Works Department are still in manual data management, which is hampering business processes from going well. Therefore this research was conducted to design an Information System at the Semarang City Public Works Department using the Enterprise Architecture Planning (EAP) method which includes a SWOT analysis and Value Chain analysis. The existing framework in the Enterprise Architecture Planning (EAP) method can help align the data architecture and application architecture to get the expected results, which is achieving the business objectives of the City of Semarang Public Works Department so that business functions can run by the desired business processes. This research resulted in several proposals for the development of Information Systems and Information Technology in organizations including the development of several applications in the next 5 years.

Complex Relationships

The modeling of the graphical representation of business processes (BP) or workflows in enterprise information systems (IS) is often to represent various activities, entities, relations, functions, and communicate between them in an enterprise to achieve the major goal of operational support. In this work, we decided to use graph representation approaches, especially hypergraphs to depict the complex relationships that exist among the artifacts and constituents of BP for more efficient and accurate manipulations. We used bipartite and further hypergraph formats for storing and curating data. We have investigated the various descriptive languages and representation models of BP as process modeling, workflow and process integration, and object-oriented (OO) languages. We have carried out experiments using different approach combinations, but for observing quiltedrepresentation, we focused on the main consistencies of “DBP”. As the final approach, we used the “DBP” stream and data schemes that are defined by us to proceed with using pure Python for manually generating data and external Python libraries to store, curate, and visualize “DBP”.
