In this paper collaboration among businesses in B2B E-commerce is analyzed and the need for timely collaboration is derived and classified in terms of inter-organizational contracts. To meet the need a method of event-condition- action (ECA) rule based timely collaboration and an intelligent active functionality component (IAFC) are proposed to provide B2B E-commerce systems with flexible coordination and timely processing in WWW environment. The proposed method supports high level programming and event-based processing so that system administrators and programmers can easily maintain the timely collaboration independently to the application logic.
