QUT STRATEGIC LINKS WITH INDUSTRY GRANT

PERIOD: January 2004 - December 2004

SUMMARY:
Achieving interoperability across enterprise boundaries is a key step towards enabling the large-scale uptake of e-business. Several architectures for inter-enterprise interoperability have been proposed and are supported to varying degrees by standards and commercial products. The variety of existing interoperability architectures has created a need for guidance. This project will investigate several interoperability architectures and will evaluate them in terms of capabilities, limitations, infrastructure requirements, etc. The outcome will be a comparative analysis of interoperability architectures and criteria for choosing one of them (or a combination thereof) in a given e-business interaction scenario.

INVESTIGATORS:
Dr Marlon Dumas
A/Prof Arthur ter Hofstede
Dr Kim Elms (SAP)

BUDGET:
AUD$37,200 (AUD$24,800 SAP + AUD$12,400 QUT).
