An innovative e-business process modeling framework is proposed that outlines the building blocks required for Internet-based e-business in order to enable e-business process automation. The framework helps in understanding the role of many proposed standards with respect to the building blocks and in identifying both overlaps and gaps among them. The domain knowledge of e-business processes is conceptualised as an e-business process ontology that enables agents' communication in e-business application sharing and reusing. Several agent-based automation mechanisms are discussed based on the ontology that provides implementation guidelines to e-business process automation","PeriodicalId":439165,"journal":{"name":"2006 IEEE International Conference on e-Business Engineering (ICEBE'06)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121023455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To meet the requirement of protecting sensitive data from outside providers, a bucket-based storage method is proposed to store the data encrypted. However, this storage method does not address the access control from the inside users, and an inside user may have enough rights to access the query results. In this paper, we propose a simple method to protect sensitive data both from insiders and outsiders on the bucket-based method. The session keys, used to encrypt sensitive data, are stored encrypted with corresponding tuples on remote databases. By constructing the user abilities to decrypt these encrypted keys on hierarchies, only the users in higher hierarchies are allowed to decrypt the encrypted session keys issued in some lower hierarchies. This method combines key distribution with access control and can be applied in the small enterprises where the users are structured in hierarchies","PeriodicalId":439165,"journal":{"name":"2006 IEEE International Conference on e-Business Engineering (ICEBE'06)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129923058","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we proposed a method of semantic similarity measurement for Chinese financial news titles based on constructing the event frame structure as the template of a Chinese financial news title. It concerns the relation between the basic meanings of two news titles for similarity measurement. In addition, a semantic similarity function is used to integrate both the relation of event frames of the financial news titles and the relation between the keywords of these titles. In this matter, the proposed method can differentiate the Chinese financial news that mention the same event from all other Chinese financial news by the event frame, since it concerns the relation between the basic meanings of two news titles and reduces the comparing time.

EPC Track&Trace service gathers specific EPC information such as shipment time and place of the products tagged with RFID from each EPC information system (EPCIS). However, it takes a lot of time to retrieve all the EPC information from each EPCIS because of their distributed nature (world wide). In order to reduce the query response time from EPCISs, this paper proposes proxy based EPC Track&Trace service architecture under EPCIS Phase2 that introduces a proxy layer inside the EPCIS. EPCIS that requests EPC information can receive the data locally by connecting to the proxy layer without connecting to the remote EPCIS each time, which reduces the query response time. This paper also proposes a data structure scheme and a synchronization method between the EPCIS and the proxy layer under the EPCIS Phase2 working draft. These schemes improve the performance in data query response time and data reusability","PeriodicalId":439165,"journal":{"name":"2006 IEEE International Conference on e-Business Engineering (ICEBE'06)","volume":"32 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128191171","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The major objective is to send the right content, to the right audience at the right time. Technically, this is called scheduling problem. However, delivering dynamic scheduling for contents remains a major challenge especially when a diverse number of resources (both for content and display) are geographically distributed. In this dynamic environment, scheduling usually involves complex and non-deterministic interactions between different participants. In this work, we propose a distributed multi-agent approach to model intelligent dynamic scheduling solution in advertisement. We believe that agent-based model is appropriate due to its characteristics to support both dynamic behaviour and distributed structure. The main contribution of this work includes: (1) modelling the scheduling problem in advertisement, (2) developing an agent-based scheduling solution for distributed, dynamic environment.

In this paper, we present our model driven data warehousing (MDDW) approach in the area of business performance management (BPM).
