It highlights key topics related to interoperability of enterprise applications and software. The workshops are related to the conference topics and will enable researchers to explore new research ideas for the future.
The four workshops cover:
1. Enterprise Integration, Interoperability and Networking – identifies issues on Applications Interoperability for Enterprise Integration that will be developed further in future research works.
2. Web Services and Interoperability – explores various aspects of web services and their benefits to the interoperability problem.
3. Interoperability Standards – Implementation, Dynamics and Impact – organized by the No-Rest STREP European project, is aimed at getting a better understanding of the impact ICT standards have on networked organizations.
