摘要

Electronic commerce is emerging as a key enabler in changing the way companies do business. This paper focuses on the aspects of electronic commerce that are pertinent to Intranet decision support and tries to develop the theory and technical requirements that will drive the implementation of such a decision support system. The main objective is to achieve information integration using the brokers, World Wide Web, and structured documents. The implementation of a prototype system is described and results from its usage are presented.
