Abstract—Traditional Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA)
has consistently promised more than it has delivered, but
Web-Oriented Architecture (WOA) promises to deliver the
robust outcomes formerly expected of SOA. WOA extends SOA
to web-based applications. The architecture hides the protocol
complexity in the application state and provides simpler
methods for the deployment of interoperable web services.
However, this pragmatic and effective approach has only been
rarely implemented, limiting the body of formal knowledge and
support available to enterprises which want to exploit this
profoundly useful and simple way of developing interoperable
systems.
In this paper, we describe the development of a novel
customer-centric collaborative commerce platform (WCCP) on
WOA in a virtual environment. The classification from the
United Nations Standard Products and Services Code
(USNPSC) was adopted to achieve the interoperability between
differential enterprises.
Index Terms—Collaborative commerce, SOA, UNSPSC,
WOA.
