Popis: To enable the interworking of traders, two type based problems have to be solved: the transformation of type identifiers when an interworking operation crosses a type boundary and a typed definition of policy rules to enable the passing of rules between interworking traders. Our solution to the first problem is based on a refined type definition for type identifier, a protocol to transform type identifiers between different type description languages and an identification mechanism for type managers. To resolve the second problem we have formalised the definition of policy rules. We show its application to specify importer, trader and global search policies. The proposed solutions are being prototyped in the framework of a global project for interworking amongst heterogeneous traders.
