基于SOA的企业虚拟组织的物流系统集成模型

Virtual Logistics Enterprise System Integration Model Based on SOA I.INTRODUCTION

Modern logistics industry itself across wide time and space, and involve many types of enterprises, such as warehousing, transportation, distribution, and packaging and so on. It is flexible, dynamic and changeable. Especially in the background of economic globalization, networking and information, moreover the advanced theory and technology is applied in logistics industry that are network communications, data warehouse, data mining, GIS, GPS and so on. That makes the whole logistics industry operating environment, operational technology and an industry rule is facing enormous changes. Therefore, it is in line with the development trend of the logistics industry that organizing agile and loose virtual logistics enterprise(VLE)does not involve the merger of the assets and bases on the Internet technology and logistics business.

VLE derived from the concept of virtual enterprise(VE). VE is that in some independent business process basis, Corporate Partners are temporarily reorganized through information technology and in accordance with their respective characteristics. That makes these partnerships to contribute their own core competencies in areas such as design, manufacture and distribution areas of the Union, to achieve skills sharing and cost-sharing, so the time to seize the rapidly changing market opportunities. VLE is a flexible dynamic organization.

II.THE MAIN PROBLEMS AND ISSUES ANALYSIS

In the VLE’s chain, there are many types(high-dimensional)large number and information format of heterogeneous enterprise information in the global. So it is crucial for organizing VLE how to choose, coordinate and manage the partnership enterprise information system that are different types and even heterogeneous technologies with the same types. The researches mainly have the following issues.

1) Today's enterprise IT architecture is often viewed as a collection of applications. For

example, design, development, enhancements, and maintenance of software systems revolve around applications. This approach leads to creation of segregated silos within the enterprise architecture, resulting in expensive and inflexible IT systems. Each application is built for a single purpose(such as transportation, warehousing, and so on),with its own data stores and for a single set of users. As a result, it implements only a subset of the enterprise functions, using and producing only a subset of the enterprise data, and typically without concerns about other processing within the enterprise. These silos manifest themselves as islands of
