Interoperability frameworks provide specifications for different aspects of interoperability, for communicating and sharing information. Ten prominent industry-neutral interoperability frameworks are analyzed in this paper, distinguishing between operational interoperability frameworks and conceptual interoperability frameworks. To support this analysis, 16 criteria were defined, which represent the basis of a comparison framework. The operational interoperability frameworks analyzed have similarities and differences, and complement each other in some aspects (e.g. messaging service). The differences refer to the manner they handle (or not) different interoperability details relevant for performing e-business, e.g. only ebXML provides guidelines for negotiation and setting-up a collaboration agreement prior to conducting e-business. The five conceptual interoperability frameworks were analyzed based on specific structural elements, as they tackle differently the notion of interoperability, i.e. targeting types of integration, interoperability barriers, levels of interoperability. Despite the advances of interoperability frameworks, full interoperability is not yet achieved. The analysis performed allowed to conclude that although interoperability frameworks represent a good direction towards seamless interoperability in a networked environment, a big challenge is the harmonization of different aspects of the interoperability frameworks towards attaining full interoperability in complex cross-sectorial e-business scenarios, which can be addressed by joint actions of the scientific community and practitioners. Finally, this analysis yields a set of directions for future research work.

网络信息系统的互操作性框架:比较分析和讨论

互操作性框架为互操作性的不同方面提供规范,用于交流和共享信息。本文分析了十个突出的行业中立互操作性框架,区分了操作互操作性框架和概念互操作性框架。为了支持这一分析,定义了 16 个标准,它们代表了比较框架的基础。所分析的操作互操作性框架有相似之处和不同之处,并且在某些方面(例如消息服务)相互补充。不同之处在于它们处理(或不处理)与执行电子商务相关的不同互操作性细节的方式,例如,只有 ebXML 提供了在进行电子商务之前进行协商和建立协作协议的指南。五个概念互操作性框架基于特定的结构元素进行了分析,因为它们以不同的方式处理互操作性的概念,即针对集成类型、互操作性障碍、互操作性级别。尽管互操作性框架取得了进步,但尚未实现完全互操作性。所进行的分析得出的结论是,尽管互操作性框架代表了在网络环境中实现无缝互操作性的良好方向,但一个巨大的挑战是互操作性框架的不同方面的协调,以在复杂的跨部门电子商务场景中实现完全互操作性,这可以通过科学界和从业者的联合行动来解决。最后,
