Web Service Integration within Next Generation CEMIS

This paper presents an implementation of the Corporate Environmental Management Information Systems (CEMIS) Next Generation platform (the core component) from the IT-for-Green research project. Key personnel from the research and transfer network ERTEMIS (European Research and Transfer network for Environmental Management Information Systems) work in the IT-for-Green project in order to allow companies and their processes becoming more environmental- friendly by means of information processing. In the frame of this project, the CEMIS Next Generation will be developed, to integrate research concepts of current interest and investigate their feasibility through a prototypical implementation. In this paper we focus on two major components: workflow management system implemented using State Chart XML (SCXML) and green service mall realized as set of standardized Web Services.
