Abstract
ebXML provides an infrastructure for the management of business collaborations between integration partners from discovery of partners, implementation to execution of business collaborations. In this paper, we combine the technologies of Semantic Web and cloud computing to design a multi-agent architecture for the management of business collaborations in ebXML. The agent programs are built upon the RDF management layer consisting of an RDF store and service functions. The execution of business collaborations are carried out by the involved business service agents with the shared states for aligning both ends. In the future the use of ontology in the management of business collaborations and building QoS aware environment based on the Semantic Web require further investigation.
