Abstract

The ebXML registry & repository standard is one of the most well accepted standards in the field of registry. Several products claiming to be ebXML compatible have been developed. While the ebXML standard is initially designed for registering and storing e-business related artifacts for the automation of the e-business, it doesn't prevent us from using it as a versatile registry and repository for any kind of industrial artifacts. However, some problems arise in this case. This paper describes a semantic model for the ebXML registry and also illustrates how to utilize it to extend semantic interoperability. The model doesn't violate the existing ebRS or ebRIM standard. On the contrary, it's based on and complementary to them, which is essentially important when we register artifacts in a versatile and federated environment.
