Abstract

This paper aims at defining the Business Modelling Language main characteristics in the context of the Digital Business Ecosystem Project. One of the main obstacles in the adoption of e-business technologies from organizations and communities depends on the divide between information technologies and methodologies enabling business knowledge modeling. These methodologies are, on one side, not sufficiently connected with software development and management processes and, on the other, poorly usable and understandable by business users. BML main purpose is to allow simple communication among business people and IT system designers through a rule-based and natural language approach, granting at the same time strong expressiveness and formal logic mapping.
