Abstract

Web services aim at providing an interoperable framework for cross system and multiple domain communication. Current basic standards are allowing for first cases of practical use and evaluation. Since, however, the modeling of the underlying application domains is largely an open issue, web service support for cross domain applications is rather limited. This limitation is particularly severe in the area of enterprise services which could benefit substantially from well-defined semantics of multiple domains. This paper focuses on the representation of user-specific domain models and on the support of their coherent interpretation on both client and server side. Our approach is founded on the paradigm of Conceptual Content Management (CCM) and provides support for coherent model interpretation by automatically generating CCM system implementations from high-level domain model specifications. Our approach to CCM has been successfully applied in several application projects.
