Paper Abstract:
|
Recent research has given much attention to the problem of interoperability in various business domains; however the
issue of interoperability in heterogeneous business domains Enterprises, Governmental and Banking Institutions of
different countries (cross-border) or Enterprises of different interests (cross-sector) - still remains a big challenge to
tackle. This paper presents a generic process modelling approach for interoperable e-business transactions carried out
mainly by Small and Medium Enterprises. According to this approach core models are constructed taking into account
state-of-the art notations and methodologies which facilitate the Application-to-Application interconnection and the
automated business documents exchange between enterprises, governmental and banking institutions. These models
cover not only national or sector specific business domain transactions but also cross-border and cross-sector processes,
which imply different requirements, as beyond differences in the execution way, different legal rules and data exchange
are also present. The process modelling methodology is briefly presented, a complete list of the examined transactions is
given and generic models are constructed, followed by a thorough analysis of the findings. |
