A semantic-mediation architecture for interoperable supply-chain applications

This paper presents a semantic-mediation architecture that enables standards-based interoperability between heterogeneous supply- chain applications. The architecture was implemented using a state-of-the-art semantic- mediation toolset for design-time and run-time integration tasks. The design-time tools supported a domain ontology definition, message annotations, message schema transformations and reconciliation rules specifications. The run- time tools performed exchanges, transformations, and reconciliations of the messages. The architecture supports a supply- chain integration scenario where heterogeneous automotive manufacturing supply-chain applications exchange inventory information.
