B2B is the major portion of E-Commerce activities. However, many third party exchanges suffer in making their business successful, although the corporations are increasing the adoption of B2B for e-procurement. Low connectivity of SMEs is another hurdle for B2B propagation. B2B standards and ebXML are not widely accepted in the real world as we have anticipated. Understand the exact reason why seems one of the fundamental research that we have to investigate. For this purpose, we need to understand the characteristics of B2B activities and corporates'
real needs, cost, and situation for collaboration. We need to investigate what are really happending in the real world, and then design what are appropriate technology to support the industrial needs.
We need to look at the phenomena not only from the perspective of technology of agents and interoperability, and but also from the social political persective of motivation. These balanced research will flourish the B2B research and realization again.
