Abstract

Electronic brokerage is regarded as a corefunctionality in overcoming many current limitations of Internetcommerce. In this paper, we describe current approaches tobrokerage services, both, on the Internet and for distributedobject systems and analyze how brokerage influences businessmodels for electronic commerce. We then describe OFFER, aproject that focuses on advanced models for brokerage on theInternet. We investigate a variety of brokerage services andprovide a high-level specification for core components of ageneric brokerage service on the Internet. The work shouldprovide a framework to classify existing approaches and aroadmap for further research in this emerging field.
