Research On Implementation Framework Of Railway Freight Transport E-Business Information Standard

The Internet era has brought a great deal of changes to the market, one of which is that more and more companys are launching ebusiness to expand their market share and enhance their competitiveness. Three main patterns of ebusiness are B2B, B2C and C2C. B2B is a way of doing business through electronic information exchange between different companies. And it needs a lot of technical infrastructure to apply ebusiness. This paper is about research on the B2B data exchange standard of China's Railway Transport Freight industry. This standard will be the Data Exchange Standard between Railway Transport Freight enterprises and their client companies. It is significant to change the way of exchanging freight information with hands. rfbXML standard includes Data Exchange Specification, Business Process Specification and Implementation Framework and the three parts composed the foundation of B2B Electronic Business(eBusiness). In the research field of eBusiness Data Exchange Standard, there have been mature studies abroad, including the famous standards ebXML and RosettaNet. ebXML is a global cross-industry eBusiness Standard. It provides the basical framework for all industries. RosttaNet is a standard of eBusiness to a special industry. In the development of rfbXML, the group has referenced both ebXML and RosettaNet.The main subject of the paper is the rfbXML implementation framework (RIF). First of all, it studies XML and related technologies, analyses the advantages of XML in developing ebusiness standard. And then after deep studies of ebXML and RosettaNet, combined with analying the specialty of China's Railway Freight Transport industry, the auhor puts forward the model of RIF. Finally, the auhor makes a primary discussion on the technologies of applying RIF. It discusses three main integration technologies of distributed systems: the middleware, the message service and web service. And the author uses web service to program a software model based on RIF. The software model realizes one of the freight taransport processes.In the research of this paper, it not only does theory studies but also developed a practical software model, which results to a good reference for implementation of rfbXML. On the other hand, the software model has some insufficiency because the lack of real scene simulation.
