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.

Document 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
Document 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
Document 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
Document 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.
