The maintenance of semantic consistency between numerous heterogeneous electronic product catalogues (EPC) that are distributed, autonomous, interdependent and emergent on the Internet is an unsolved issue for the existing heterogeneous EPC integration approaches. [] Key Result This approach has been validated through a theoretical justification and its applicability has been demonstrated in two prototypical e-business applications.

Explicitating semantics in Enterprise Information Systems Models

This research memory will show the results obtained during the Post Doc study referring to the published works, and proposes a conceptualisation approach for explicitation of the finest-grained semantics, embedded into conceptual models in order to facilitate the semantic matching between two different information systems that have to interoperate.

This paper proposes CCDR approach to make a semantic inference on received documents in a realistic e-business scenario and implements the reasoning procedure by developing SDR system which integrates with a novel inference algorithm.

A Semantically Enriched E-Tendering Mechanism

A novel semantic-enriched e-Tendering (SEET) approach is proposed, which enables heterogeneous e-tendering systems to be semantically connected and interoperable by applying collaborative conceptualization theory.

Deconstruction and reconstruction of heterogeneous electronic product catalogues for semantic interoperation

The theory deconstructs heterogeneous EPCs into ordered concepts, structures and semantic relations by a proposed articulation approach and reconstructs the deconstructed units into a novel CONEX framework for component EPC integration.

A three-layer product integration framework is advocated to resolve the difficulties in overcoming these problems with a direct one-layer integration, suitable for inter-operation with higher-level document and workflow ontologies.

Context representation, transformation and comparison for ad hoc product data exchange

In this approach, concepts and contexts of product data are specified along data exchange chain and are mapped onto several novel XML product map (XPM) documents by utilizing XML hierarchical structure and its syntax.
