A note on an architecture for integrating cloud computing and enterprise systems using REA

This paper presents an architecture for integrating cloud computing and enterprise systems based on the Resource-Event-Agent (REA) model. The public/private approach used in RosettaNet provides the conceptual basis to capture information used in the cloud and by users of the cloud locally in their own systems. The architecture is then examined using information in the context of REA and the cloud-based software developed by Workday to illustrate different characteristics of the approach.
