Ejub Kajan · 2005
B2B is a strong multidisciplinary research field with many constituent disciplines and technologies. This paper deals with the B2B interoperability in the sense of open component and framework standards. In particular, underlying network technologies, protocols, the components and concepts of Web intelligence, and the frameworks for B2B interoperability are described. All technologies described are covered by an overview of relevant standards. Concluding remarks emphasize a critical overview of the current state of B2B openness and future directions in research and standardization in terms of fundamental technologies described here. The most of discussed issues are of wider interest for many e-applications.
