Business service interface structure

EbXML is the emerging standard intended to facilitate the efficient and flexible B2B collaboration. One of the crucial issues is the implementation of the business service interface (BSI). BSI is an intermediary between the other companies and the internal business applications of a company that is engaged in electronic business. BSI is not directly specified. Its behavior and its assignments are specified indirectly through the other specifications. This paper discusses and describes a general structure of BSI so it would comply with all the requirements which are also discussed. BSI would enable the companies to engage in electronic business collaborations according to the previously specified business processes that are agreed with the other party. It would enable conducting the business with a minimum human interference. BSI would also enable the human control of delicate business transactions.
