CrossWork: Internet-Based Support for Process-Oriented Instant Virtual Enterprises
نویسندگان
چکیده
The ever-increasing complexity of contemporary products and services demands business supply chains that involve a large number of autonomous organizations. Competitive markets require that these chains are highly agile, effective and efficient. This is achieved by forming dynamic virtual enterprises within supplier networks, which we call instant virtual enterprises (IVEs). We present the CrossWork system and its background. CrossWork provides efficiency in creating and operating IVEs by automated, internet-based support for composition, setup and execution of global business processes. The system is based on agent-oriented, service-oriented and workflow technologies on top of an internet infrastructure. We illustrate the use of the system in the automotive domain.
