Problem 1: A Simple Integration Problem

First review Chapter1 (Section 1.3) and Chapter2 (Section 2.2) and then consider a small business that sells clothes to a large retailer such as Macy.

By using the Frank Furniture Store example in chapter 1, develop a sketch of integrated architecture for your company. Specifically, answer the following questions.

What will be the enterprise architecture of your business. Just show a diagram.

What will be the integration issues (list 3 to 4) that your company has to deal with

What role will the basic web technologies (e.g., web browser, web server, web gateway, HTML, and HTTP) play in this case. Explain through a simple diagram.

Show a simple example of a purchase order (as an XML document) sent from the buyer to the seller and the shipping statement, also in XML. The XML documents can be very simple (around 5 elements).

By using the material in Chapter 2, select which enterprise architecture framework will you choose for this company and why (2-3 lines)

Briefly discuss, 3-4 lines, how will you make your small business smart.

Suggestion: Please review Chapter1 and the Chapter2 slides before attempting this problem.

Problem 2: Web and XML Review

By surfing the Web, find 10 different variants of XML (e.g., VoiceXML). For each, give a one-line description of where it is being used.

Develop XML representation of who you are, what is your CPT assignment (one line), your academic background, what courses you have taken at HU so far, what five courses are you planning to take at HU, where are you living right now in USA, and your family (how many brothers, sisters, etc). This document should have about 10 elements and not more than 30 statements.

Create a DTD for this XML document (define some optional and required features) and validate the XML document through this DTD. Please note that we will validate your XML and DTD files.

Suggestion: This problem requires a basic understanding of Web Technologies and XML (the material commonly covered in ISEM501). To brush-up your knowledge of Web and XML, please do the following:

· Review the voice annotated slides on Web-XML, 1 hour, URL =

· Visit the w3schools for short tutorials on web and XML technologies

· Review Chapter 6 of the text on Web Technologies and XML
