Enterprise Interoperability
The COIN EI services aim at supporting the elimination or reduction of the incompatibilities among enterprise systems involved in a collaboration scenario (being it long- or short-term). Such interoperability gaps to be removed are in general at the level of organizational structures, business processes, enterprise applications/services and data formats/content, while EI services use model transformations and semantic reconciliation techniques to solve them according to the integrated, unified and federated interoperability form. The EI services are divided into 4 distinct classes, each of them addressing one aspect of the interoperability challenges.
-
Enterprise Interoperability Baseline Services
- They support model transformations and semantic reconciliation mechanisms applied to business documents, business processes and enterprise models, according mainly to the integrated and unified form
-
Information Interoperability Services
- They cover the case of multiple actors involved in the collaboration and encompass publish/subscribe/negotiate mechanism for solving the interoperability gaps at data level
-
Knowledge Interoperability Services
- They cover the semantic representation of Enterprise competencies and the need for alignment, harmonization and interoperability of enterprises semantic profiles involved in a collaboration
-
Business Interoperability Services
- They cover the high-level generation and the relevant model transformations necessary to create an executable collaborative business process among actors exposing external views of their internal processes.
