....Lausanne, Switzerland, 17 20 September, 2002. The work reported in this paper has been funded in part by the Cooperative Research Centre for Enterprise Distributed Systems Technology (DSTC) through the Australian Federal Government s CRC Programme (Department of Industry, Science Resources) [16, 15, 1, 13, 9, 18, 4]) In general terms, e contracting covers a variety of services such as brokering to identify and match prospective business partners; negotiation between partners; lodging of signed electronic contract documents; contract performance monitoring; mediation, dispute resolution and other activities ....

...., there is a major need for infrastructures and frameworks that can be used to implement inter organizational applications. In particular it is essential to provide support for routing of documents across organizations in a standardized and yet flexible manner to enable open electronic commerce [18,19,26,27,33,36,53]. Developing more homogeneous languages for various electronic commerce activities [21] is one way to facilitate increased productivity and interoperability. In this paper, we describe an architecture and a language called XRL (eXchangeable Routing Language) that provide support for routing of ....

....the Web. This volume was projected to increase to 1.3 Trillion by 2003. Current workflow products are generally intra organizational and based on centralized architectures. Therefore, they typically lack scalability and are also not very useful for implementing interorganizational applications [1,4,5,6,36]. Moreover, these systems use propriety languages for specifying workflow processes. Despite efforts by the Workflow Management Coalition (WfMC, 30] a lingua franca for workflow management is lacking. The Workflow Process Definition Language (WPDL) of the WfMC has no formal semantics, i.e. the ....

....rather than merely at the time of payment. This conflict might be resolved by breaking the promise, violating the prohibition, or voiding one or both. Such conflict resolution is treated in [1] 2 Related Work Current contract driven inter enterprise workflow architectures, such as COSMOS [12] and CrossFlow [11] focus on service advertisement and invocation, but do not ascertain consistency between contractual terms and business policies. Initiatives such as the OASIS ebXML Collaboration Protocol Profile (CPP) and Agreement (CPA) specifications [7] again provide service advertisement ....

....trust based reasoning, theory of evidence 1. INTRODUCTION A considerable volume of recent research and industrial application efforts has concentrated on the provision of automated support for the establishment and subsequent implementation of electronic contracts (cf. 7] 1] 6] 13] [11], amongst many others) In general terms, e contracting is viewed by many researchers as conducted within an electronic market place (a so called e market) which offers a variety of services, such as: brokering to identify and match prospective business partners; negotiation facilitation; lodging ....

....support for contract performance has been concerned with (i) However, the model that it envisages for contract performance is such that (ii) and (iii) are not addressed at all, because the possibility of deviation from prescribed behaviour is ruled out. In general terms, such a model (cf. [11] for an overview) relies on extracting workflow information from a contract and then implementing functions that realise various activities within their specified time bounds. Such functions are either triggered centrally by an e market module that controls the workflow systems of contracting ....

....facto environment for electronic commerce. However, the current electronic commerce technologies rely on much in house programming activities and are inefficient and lack interoperability. The trend is to develop more standardized architectures and techniques for open electronic commerce services [4,5,11,17]. One important thrust for increased productivity and interoperability is to develop more homogeneous languages for various electronic commerce activities [9] A second thrust is towards developing autonomous, cooperating agents that can communicate intelligently with one another [16] In this ....
