A Service-Oriented Computing Model for Supply Chain Collaboration
Yingbo Wu, Xu Wang · 2010
The main issue facing technical collaboration in a supply chain is how to effectively integrate distributed computing resources that are dynamically different to achieve collaborative computing and to support new collaborative computing application demand. The paper proposes a service-oriented conceptual computing model to facilitate the collaboration of computing resource in the supply chain. In the model, each computing resource which participates in collaborative computing is encapsulated as a collaborative computing service, and is coupled into a loose collaboration computing alliance. An collaboration business event-driven mechanism also is designed to support dynamic and flexible collaborative computing among collaborative computing services of the model.
