Unified activity management: Supporting people in e-business

Unified Activity Management (UAM) provides support to people in e-business organizations. All people involved in the business processes can see Avtivity descriptions and they can modify and extend the descriptions. The main objectives of the shared Activity representation are to organize work around activities instead of tools and artifacts and to provide a singleplace for people to manage the whole range of their activities. It also helps capture, reuse, and evolve best practices in activity pattern, and integrates informal business activities and workflow-driven business processes. The Seamantic Web is an ideal platform to provide the flexibility, extensibility, and data integration necessary to support the inherent viability and adaptability of business activities. The default mode of UAM is to support flexible and open interactions between people.
