文摘This paper deals with the goals and visions of a consortium in Japan, named Consortium for Business Object Promotion (CBOP), discussing its background, activities, and basic technical approaches to share and exchanging various types of Business Objects. Especially, Object Pattern Technologies used in CBOP should be discussed.
