A Framework of Supporting System for Optimizing Information Flow in International Trade Transaction

抄録

The current international trade transaction processes among ASEAN countries are facing high-costs structure because of the redundant paperworks. Furthermore, multiple languages used in these processes make the problems more difficult. In this paper, a framework of system, which helps to resolve the problems is proposed. The system can generate an optimized process of paperworks from a complex process. First, an international trade transaction model, which is an underlying basis of the framework is defined. Second, an international logistics ontology, which has been developed for describing the model is shown. Then, an algorithm for optimizing information flows is proposed. Furthermore, a case study is shown in order to explain the proposed framework. This framework contributes to reduce the paperwork costs of international trade transaction processes.
