The metadata methodology may give us certain good ideas. First, the metadata description method of manufacturing information resource, transaction process and message delivery is put forward on the basis of operation analysis of manufacturing-oriented EAI, and then the tree-structured XML schema of corresponding object is built and a framework of metadata application in the discrete Manufacturing-Oriented EAI is established.
