Abstract

This Research paper presents the Process Definition Tools implementation, which is an automated manufacturing test bed that has been integrated into the Service Orientated Architecture (SOA). The enablement of this SOA in terms of Digital Business Ecosystem (DBE) research presents new applications to Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs) that support, require and supply automated manufacturing systems. These new applications and characteristics in the context of Digital Ecosystem tools, technologies and general architectural changes are examined. In particular new opportunities in virtualization of automation and integration at both lower and higher levels of distributed applications are presented in a transformed view of a DBE.
