Abstract
Enterprise integration is traditionally a matter of engineering to a framework. The virtual enterprise drives the engineering focus more to the semantics side of the equation. In our lab, we are dealing with a few experimental types of semantics for the virtual enterprise. Previous papers have indicated three of these: tactile semantic distance, introspective modeling and folded metaphors from film.
The need for advanced semantics plus the need for collaborative creation and management have forced us to re-examine model presentation for the virtual enterprise. In the past, if formal these have been based on graphical notations or sentential logic, often both. It is common to have annotative text associated with the formal structure.
This paper presents some ideas adapted from other communities and presents some ideas for an alternative presentation. The primary metaphor is nesting, and the motive is to conform in a natural way to XML formats. An outline presentation scheme is sketched and emerging collaborative editing methods adopted.
