Development of multidatabase systems requires a careful understanding of the data requirements and of the data interaction between the participant sites. Total integration of the data is not feasable, due to such reasons as the dynamics of today's information requirements. We therefore put forward that a multidatabase system must be built on a partial integration. In this paper we outline a met...

We propose a meta-meta framework architecture for supporting the behaviour based integration of two business processes. The meta-meta level provides basic integration operators to the system administrator to create integration options for specific domains. Based on semantic relationships between nodes of two business processes these integration options are executed and transform parts of the bu...

The number of information sources in the Web is growing day by day with a tremendous speed. At the same time, users tend to manage more and more tasks electronically, thereby using publicly available information sources. Since the Web is an open, distributed and dynamic environment, in which information sources are offered and controlled autonomously and independently, the interoperability of a...

Interacting services are at the center of attention in businessto-business (B2B) process integration scenarios. Global interaction models specify the interaction behavior of each service and serve as contractual basis for the collaboration. Consequently, service implementations have to be consistent with the specifications. Consistency checking ensures that an implemented service is compatible ...

In this document, we introduce the concepts of Canonical Data and Canonical Process Models as a way of tackling the problem of interoperability between widely adopted business standards (as far as business messages and respectively business processes are concerned). We describe the general problem that interoperability addresses in this context, and introduce a concrete example to see where suc...

This paper discusses the relationships between the design technology industry and other (process, manufacturing) semiconductor supplier industries, against the backdrop of the semiconductor industry's overall technology requirements (the 2001 International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors). The central claim is that \design-process integration" is by no means blocked by lack of awareness o...

In this paper, we discuss what is knowledge for synthesis and how knowledge is used in synthesis process. Variety of knowledge is crucial in synthesis process like design. Such variety of knowledge in turn makes it difficult to collect and integrate knowledge that is the main process of synthesis. We model synthesis process as integration of knowledge units called design experiences that is des...

In this age of modern era, the use of internet must be maximized. Yeah, internet will help us very much not only for important thing but also for daily activities. Many people now, from any level can use internet. The sources of internet connection can also be enjoyed in many places. As one of the benefits is to get the on-line jdf process integration technology product description book, as the...
