Project Title: SPIKE - Secure Process-oriented Integrative Service Infrastructure for Networked Enterprises

spike

Funding Scheme: STREP
Description: SPIKE is developing a software platform for the easy and fast setup of business alliances. It will enable outsourcing parts of the value chain to business partners and the collaboration between members of participating organisations.
Objectives: The organisational objectives of the project are to allow for the secure and fast set-up and management of the networked enterprises through short-term and project-based business alliances with the following goals:
  • Enable outsourcing of parts of the value chain to business partners (and vice versa, offering such parts in form of services) in short-term business alliances
  • Simplify collaboration between members of participating organisations through both dynamically created and pre-defined business processes and workflows
  • Achieve interoperability and integration between heterogeneous organisations of all sizes
  • Offer generic solutions for inter-enterprise interoperability and collaboration through reference scenarios and guidelines for their use.
The science and technology objectives of the SPIKE project include the research, development, implementation and validation of the following components:
  • Semantic service bus for registering, discovering and contracting services, as well as service message routing and processing capabilities
  • Semantic business process management engine, which will handle customized reference processes, ad-hoc defined workflows and distributed processes built from generic process fragments
  • Semantic transformation of service messages including user context information
  • Information flow control between members of the alliance, that is, service message and user context filtering according to previously specified policies
  • Security infrastructure for the networked enterprise in terms of attribute management, authentication, workflow and service access control, and auditing functionality
  • Repositories for processes and ontologies supporting the networked enterprise
  • Portal server extension for semantic context capturing and communication
  • Portal-based interfaces and tools for user-friendly administration of alliances, ad-hoc workflow modelling and process handling, service management and security as well as user administration
