| Abstract: | The article suggests an object-oriented extensible markup language (XML) document meta-model that supports business-to-business (B2B) collaborations. Distributed organization collaborate with each other by sharing manufacturing information or exchanging trading documents. However, each organization often has different data formats, communication methods and databases. Therefore, to execute collaborative interactions between distributed organizations, it is important to develop an information integration technology between heterogenous information sources. Automatic interpretation of communicated data and integration of the data with legacy databases within enterprises will be an enabler technology for the effective implementation of B2B collaborations. In this article, a document data model that efficiently integrates XML documents as a medium to exchange data on the Internet among inter-enterprise databases is proposed. |
