b) Included above

c) All schema and XML instances are well formed, and all expressions are valid.
Note, several examples, such as those where explicitly commented, are
abbreviated. In addition, in the Document Supplements package, these are samples
designed to be further developed for transformation purposes and are identified
as such.

d) The eBusiness eXtensible Markup Language (ebXML) Business Process
Specification Schema (BPSS) technical specification provides a standards-based
business process foundation that promotes the automation and predictable
exchange of business collaboration definitions using XML. With such an ebBP
process definition, business systems may be configured to support execution of
Business Collaborations consisting of Business Transactions.

e) The ebBP may be used with other process, configuration, registry, and
business document specifications and/or emerging technologies. For example:
a. An XML representation of an ebBP definition may be stored in the ebXML
repository and registered in the ebXML registry for discovery and use of ebBP
process instances.
b. An ebBP process definition document may be referenced by the Collaboration
Protocol Profile (CPP) and used in Collaboration Protocol Agreement (CPA) XML
documents. Guided by the CPP and CPA specifications the resulting XML document
may become the configuration file for one or more Business Service Interface,
i.e. the software component that may manage either business partner's
participation in a Business Collaboration.
c. If one or more parties wish to participate on the basis of web service
definitions the corresponding WSDL files associated to the Business Transaction
Activities that are representing the party may be generated and referenced in
the CPA, as necessary. The ebBP provides a mapping between BTAs (i.e. the usage
of a Business Transaction definition in a Business Collaboration definition) and
operations of one or multiple web services.
d. The ebXML Message Service Specification may provide the infrastructure for
message / signal for in the choreography specified in an ebBP process
definition.
e. The ebBP supports modular process definitions supporting UBL v1.0 and small
business subset have been released and approved as Committee Specifications (see
public ebBP site).
