Abstract
Product data exchange is the precondition of business interoperation between Web-based firms. However, millions of small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) encode their Web product data in ad hoc formats for electronic product catalogues. This prevents product data exchange between business partners for business interoperation. To solve this problem, this paper has proposed a novel concept-centric catalogue engineering approach for representing, transforming and comparing semantic contexts in 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. The designed XPM has overcome the semantic limitations of XML markup and has achieved the semantic interoperation for ad hoc product data exchange.
