Applying Collaborative Open Hypermedia Concepts to Extended Enterprise Engineering and Operation
نویسنده
چکیده
An Extended Enterprise (EE) is a new form of organizing Business-to-Business (B2B) cooperation among business partners. Here, independent companies form a network to develop and deliver a product to a customer. An EE extends the concept of a virtual enterprise because it persists even after the product is delivered. Thus, the EE serves as a container for knowledge captured during product development and delivery, which can be used to aid partner acquisition and project organization for future projects.

Life Cycle Support for Collaborative Engineering and Operation of Virtual Enterprises
Current information technology for virtual enterprise modeling, computational simulation, process enactment and cooperation support is fragmented. Our integration strategy is based on a dynamic process-centric enterprise model that is presented and manipulated as component-based cooperative hypermedia. The resulting system, XCHIPS, is accessible on the Web and provides life-cycle cooperative en...
متن کاملApplying Systems Engineering to Optimise the Operation and Maintenance of Railway Vehicles throughout the Value Chain
A recent move by the UK government to purchase two new railway vehicle fleets from the provider offering the lowest whole-life, whole-system cost creates significant challenges to traditional manufacturers and their extended enterprises. This paper describes the work of a collaborative academic-industry research project; applying systems engineering to enable the optimisation of the operation a...
متن کاملVisualizing and interacting with hypermedia-based process-centric enterprise models
Interoperability and cross-fertilization of multiple hypermedia domains are relatively new concerns to the open hypermedia and structural computing community. Recent work in this area has explored integrated data models and component-based structural service architectures. This paper focuses on the user interface aspects relating to client applications of the structural services. It presents an...
متن کاملA component-based open hypermedia approach to integrating structure services
In this paper, we consider the issue of integrating different structure services within a component-based open hypermedia system. We do so by considering the task of collaborative editing, which calls for a variety of different structures traditionally supplied by different structure services. We discuss the nature of collaborative editing and how it can be supported by a combination of spatial...
متن کاملAdaptive Hypermedia through Contextual Structures
Research at the University of Southampton has extended generalised Open Hypermedia (OH) models to include concepts of context and behaviour, both traditionally very important to the Adaptive Hypermedia (AH) domain. In this paper we re-evaluate Brusilovsky’s taxonomy of AH techniques from a structural perspective. The authors show that it is possible to identify and model common structures acros...
