N2 - Today we have no generally agreed upon architecture of virtual
enterprises. In this paper, a general architecture for virtual
enterprises is proposed, based on GERAM (ISO/DIS 15704). First,
the extended and the virtual enterprise are compared, and the most
essential of the concepts used in GERAM are introduced, followed
by a presentation of the virtual enterprise architecture.
Subsequently, by examples, the broad denotation of the virtual
enterprise concept is illustrated by the architecture, after which
the focus is limited to so-called focused networks of companies
exploiting the potentials of the virtual enterprise. For focused
networks the virtual enterprise architecture is explained in depth
by an example. The next chapter discusses VE concepts, typology
and methodology for these virtual enterprise focused networks. As
regards concept classes of use, an example of so-called
situational factors and design parameters is presented. In
addition, a typology or reference architecture for knowledge
production is described, followed by a discussion of the basic
issues of a methodology.
