Automatic generation and integration of RosettaNet based on generic templates and components

Abstract

This paper presents the design methodology and implementation architecture of a component based generic solution that not only supports RosettaNet, but also provides an easy, intuitive way for E-commerce applications to quickly incorporate new standards. RosettaNet is the leading industry organization focused on developing B2B process standards for a global supply chain. Supporting the open and common approach of RosettaNet is important for supply-chains partners to scale their e-Businesses, and to fully leverage E-commerce applications. We try to reduce the integration effort, and improve extensibility and interoperability of an eBusiness infrastructure. We implemented the RosettaNet Framework in a generic way, which enabled the automatic and seamless integration of RosettaNet into existing E-commerce applications. This provides flexibility in incorporating any new emerging open standard.
