Project description Internet of Things and enterprise environments Show the project objective Hide the project objective The Business Network of suppliers, distributors, customers and partners that a company acquires is becoming a competitive asset. The requirement is to continuously and dynamically optimize and adapt this network to the evolving business needs.The "protocol" of Business Networks is the semantic interoperability between businesses enabling the realization of business meaning from the data being communicated within the network.In principle, semantic interoperability is established by creating mappings between metadata and data elements that constitute the business documents that are exchanged among the nodes (businesses) of the network.This project will look into innovative low-cost means of establishing mappings for semantic interoperability while addressing the ever-changing structure of the business network. We claim that this goal can be achieved by employing the inherently low-cost peer-to-peer and pay-as-you-go mechanisms. Specifically, we refer to the following features of low cost business networking mechanisms as The Wisdom of the Network:* As-you-Go Build-Up of the Mappings* Know your Neighbors. A sub-network develops its own business terminology and even its own interpretation of the terminology* Quick Setup. When a node joins a sub-network, it gets the mapping it needs and it benefits from the mappings accumulated in the sub-network* Tolerating Incomplete Information* Decentralized Control Programme(s) FP7-ICT - Specific Programme "Cooperation": Information and communication technologies Topic(s) ICT-2009.1.3 - Internet of Things and Enterprise environments Call for proposal FP7-ICT-2009-5 See other projects for this call Funding Scheme CP - Collaborative project (generic) Coordinator SAP SE Address Dietmar hopp allee 16 69190 Walldorf Germany See on map Region Baden-Württemberg Karlsruhe Rhein-Neckar-Kreis Activity type Private for-profit entities (excluding Higher or Secondary Education Establishments) Administrative Contact Mor Sagmon (Mr) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window EU contribution € 958 045,00 Participants (6) Sort alphabetically Sort by EU Contribution Expand all Collapse all ECOLE POLYTECHNIQUE FEDERALE DE LAUSANNE Switzerland EU contribution € 482 600,00 Address Batiment ce 3316 station 1 1015 Lausanne See on map Region Schweiz/Suisse/Svizzera Région lémanique Vaud Activity type Higher or Secondary Education Establishments Administrative Contact Martin Rajman (Dr.) Links Contact the organisation Opens in new window Website Opens in new window UNIVERSITAET ST.
