TL;DR: A survey of relevant standards in this area is presented and some recommendations for future works are given as part of the conclusion.
Abstract: With the globalization of manufacturing activities and increasing requirements on interoperability, standardization will play an important role in R&D and day-to-day activities related to enterprise integration and engineering. The paper presents a survey of relevant standards in this area. After a brief introduction on various standardization activities carried out worldwide, the paper gives an overview of the major results achieved and work being performed so far. Comparisons between various standards are presented. A concluding summary and some recommendations for future works are given as part of the conclusion.

TL;DR: In this paper, the main characteristics of a "discipline" are analyzed in the context of collaborative networks, showing that the pre-conditions necessary for building this new discipline are available.
Abstract: Collaborative networks manifest in a large variety of forms, including virtual organizations, virtual enterprises, dynamic supply chains, professional virtual communities, collaborative virtual laboratories, etc. A large body of empiric knowledge related to collaborative networks is already available, but there is an urgent need to consolidate this knowledge and build the foundations for a more sustainable development of this area. The establishment of a scientific discipline for collaborative networks is a strong instrument in achieving this purpose. In this article the main characteristics of a “discipline” are analyzed in the context of collaborative networks, showing that the pre-conditions necessary for building this new discipline are available.
