Reference models supporting enterprise networks and virtual enterprises
by Martin Tolle, Peter Bernus
International Journal of Networking and Virtual Organisations (IJNVO), Vol. 2, No. 1, 2003

Abstract: This article analyses different types of reference models applicable to support the set up and (re)configuration of Virtual Enterprises (VEs). Reference models are models capturing concepts common to VEs aiming to convert the task of setting up a VE into a configuration task, and hence reducing the time needed for VE creation. The reference models are analysed through a mapping onto the Virtual Enterprise Reference Architecture (VERA) based upon GERAM and created in the IMS GLOBEMEN project.
