of object structure and object behaviour. Research in federated information
systems has so far mainly addressed integration of object structure. This
project will investigate the integration of object behaviour, especially object
life cycles. A major application area is the integration of business processes,
which is typically required when companies merge or enter into
consumer-producer relationships and constitutes a key capability for B2B e-commerce
systems. Consistency criteria for behaviour integration
will be defined and applied in a graphical integration tool that guides the
definition of global behavioural views upon autonomous object-oriented systems.

Scalable Composition and Deployment of Business-to-Business Web-based E-Services. The ubiquity of the Internet offers far reaching opportunities for
emerging Web applications. Separate businesses may be linked into a virtual enterprise that provides a one-stop shop for users. However, there is no model available for managing electronically accessible
services (e-services) in a systematic manner which make them easy to compose and deploy. Our research proposes to address the fundamental issue ....Scalable Composition and Deployment of Business-to-Business Web-based E-Services. The ubiquity of the Internet offers far reaching opportunities for
emerging Web applications. Separate businesses may be linked into a virtual enterprise that provides a one-stop shop for users. However, there is no model available for managing electronically accessible
services (e-services) in a systematic manner which make them easy to compose and deploy. Our research proposes to address the fundamental issues related to fast and scalable composition of e-services in Web-based environments. We propose novel concepts for integrating a large number of dynamic and loosely coupled services. Another distinctive feature of our approach is the peer-to-peer collaborative execution of services.Read moreRead less

The project provides a valuable opportunity to make significant impact on water resource management and create community partnerships that will go well beyond the lifetime of the project. The project is expected to contribute to improved water quality and healthier ecosystems. In turn, the scientifically rich research environment will benefit all involved. It will demonstrate the capability of the Australian researchers in addressing complex problems in data integration and quality. In particular there will be far reaching benefits of research training for associated PhD students and staff.Read moreRead less
