These E-commerce systems are non-interoperable and create problems for the buyers who use these systems to purchase construction materials. This paper presents the mobile agent-based approach and Web services-based approach for enabling interoperation of these systems in the E-Union environment.展开更多

Due to the high volume and the lack of specificity of this information, covering them through traditional and relational databases is not possible and modem solutions should be used for processing them, so that processing speed is also covered. Data storage for processing and the way of accessing to them in memory, network communication, covering required features for distributed system in solutions that are in use for storing big data, are the items that should be covered. In this paper, a collection of advantages and challenges of big data, special features and characteristics of them has been provided and with the introduction of technologies in use, storage methods are studied and research opportunities to continue the way will be introduced.展开更多
