The research of networking enterprise modeling system

The evolution of network gives an impetus to development of new manufacturing pattern such as Agile Manufacture. So the networking of enterprise modeling system is also asked. Firstly we discuss the current research on this field. Then a new Networking Enterprise Modeling Infrastructure is brought forward in this paper. In this infrastructure, which has no limit on certain enterprise model architecture and adopts a peer-to-peer mode, each distributed enterprise is seen as a peer, but not a client or a server. It can join into a group freely and communicate with each group member and collaborate with them on Virtual Enterprise Modeling. A realizing clew based on COM is also given accompanying with the analysis of components.
