Abstract
Companies are more and more focusing on their core competencies, outsourcing
business tasks to their business partners. In order to support collaboration
between business partners, adequate information systems need to be
built automating inter-organizational business processes. The bases
for such information systems are business components combining software
artefacts from different vendors to applications which are individual
to each customer. The crucial factors in identifying and building
reusable, marketable and self-contained business components are the
appropriateness and the quality of the underlying business domain
models. This paper therefore introduces a process for the identification
of business components based on an enterprise ontology, being a business
domain model satisfying well defined quality criteria.
