business process orchestrations for web services and other internet

Here is the Wikipedia entry on collection/aggregation. We often

Matt, some of the terms (HL7 RIM, LOINC, OKBC) have specific meanings

Here is some basic information on the use of HL7 RIM:

Peter is right that the term "EAV" is a data schema implementation

formal propositions. In thi
