Hybrid Modelling with ADOxx: Virtual Enterprise Interoperability Using Meta Models

This practical paper introduces hybrid modelling and its application in supporting interoperability within virtual enterprises. Based on a survey report of the FINES cluster, different dimensions of enterprise interoperability are introduced before concept modelling as an instrument and meta-modelling as the technological approach is discussed. The challenge of holistically combining different modelling approaches concerned with enterprise interoperability can be tackled via hybrid modelling. The open development platform ADOxx is introduced as a technological basis supporting realization of the hybrid modelling and the semantic lifting. Hybrid modelling applied in the project BIVEE to holistically model a Value Production Space is introduced to demonstrate a complex meta-modelling environment.
