From the Paper
"Among the more recent application developments for the web is the Extensible Mark-up Language (XML) designed to improve the functionality of the Web by providing more flexible and adaptable information identification. (?The XML FAQ,? Jan 2002). The flexibility and extensibility of XML are very significant features since at present further development of the Web is held back by important constraints due to dependence on a single inflexible document type-HTML (the Hypertext Mark-up Language most frequently used on the web) which is already stretched to the limit with over-use and has severe limitations for data transfer and storage."

From the Paper
"Corporations the world over have utilized e-business or some aspect of electronic commerce (e-commerce) to either act as their sole business model or to enhance the productive performance in some way of their existing traditional business models. E-commerce might be considered as a type of business transaction where the parties to the transaction conduct their commerce electronically where electronically has come to be considered the Internet (Epstein, 2004). Yet, technically speaking e-commerce could just as well be considered to be transacted by phone, fax, or other electronic form of media. Such definitions evade the true essence of electronic commerce, which in practice has become one of those rare cases where changing needs and new technologies have come together to revolutionize the way in which business is conducted over an entirely new medium; commonly termed the Internet."

"Culture trends present both threats and opportunities for a firm. The retail industry is a customer. The industry must understand that the buying power of baby boomers and teenagers has grown. Parents are busy and are entrusting their children with more money to use and buy what is needed. There are also a number of cultural trends that must be followed. Cocooning refers to customers who retreat into their safe, cozy "homelike" environment. This boosts sales in the catalogue and on-line shopping areas. Another trend is called Down-aging. In this situation, customers search out precuts that are symbols of youth, renewal and rejuvenation to offset the routine and intensity of their adult lives. Both these trends provide ample opportunities for the retail industry."

"The increase of communications and its convenience provides much scope for dataveillance. The monitoring and storing of personal data may breach the privacy rights of individuals. However the combining of surveillance sources such as CCTV, bank records, and location tracking using mobile telephone signals bring surveillance to a new level. By pooling together all information sources, information gathered on an individual is so personal and provides such a three-dimensional picture into one?s life and habits."

Abstract
This document discusses the legal, ethical, and regulatory dimensions of operating a business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce website and of operating a business-to-consumer (B2C) e-commerce website. The consensus is that while many of the infrastructural solutions for these two orientations of e-commerce are the same, some very important differences, such as the regulatory requirements across industries, are dramatically different.
From the Paper
"Business-to-business (B2B) websites differ in various ways from business-to-consumer (B2C) websites from a legal, ethical, and regulatory perspective. One of the most obvious differences between the two are the fact that many B2B sites have some sort of contractual obligation to complete an order in a given time period and according to certain specifications (Luftman, 2003). In the B2C environment this same contractual undertone does not exist although e-commerce sites of the B2C variety try to limit variance in how they treat customers and fulfillment concerns as this is a quality issue."

Therefore, E-commerce and Freight Forwarders particularly maritime forwarders are to say the least worlds apart if not universes apart. This is not to say however that the works of reconciliation are not underway. Indeed there has been much discussion, revision and other efforts to bring the two entities into some form of unison for several years.

Abstract
This paper provides a detailed explanation of e-commerce and how it works. It explains what e-commerce is from a business perspective, a communications perspective, a service perspective, and an online perspective. The paper also looks at the different classifications and categories of e-commerce. Benefits of e-commerce, standards in e-commerce, and its prospects for the future are also discussed.
From the Paper
"Electronic commerce or e-commerce is the term used to describe all forms of information exchange and business transactions based on information and communication technologies. There are different types of formal definitions of e-commerce, but the wide scope involved has resulted in many definitions focusing on only certain aspects. A fairly comprehensive definition covers e-commerce from four different perspectives (Kalakota and Whinston, 1997, p.38) ? communications, business process, service and online. From a communications perspective, e-commerce is the transfer of information, products, services and payments over communication and electronic networks. The business process is about application of information and communications technology for automation of business activities and transactions."

From the Paper
"E-commerce has changed the way the world do business, plain and simple. It has single handedly brought more people, countries, enterprises and governments together to the same world market than all other forms of conducting methods, combined. This name, given to the electronic method of executing business, has made the task of buying every available merchandise exponentially easier and has therefore made all the more products accessible to the general population as well as businesses and industries. The boom in online trade is gaining alacrity and is destined to become the method of choice for all those who make transactions and engage in commerce. There is, however, one major problem that is hampering the success of e-commerce, and that is the risk of security that online websites face everyday. This threat to the privacy of online shoppers is limiting the outspread and global adoption of online trade. To prevent the e-commerce process from getting stunted in its infancy, effective methods have to be devised to overcome this major hurdle in the path of international technological and commercial progress."

Abstract
This paper explains that the Internet has enabled e-commerce to be leveraged as a business solution for even the smallest of competitors and has opened up vast new markets to enterprises that could not have imagined selling their products or services internationally in previous eras. The author points out that the Internet and e-commerce initiatives have improved enterprise supply chain efficiency and made them far more transparent; however, many Internet based business solutions are cost and resource inhibitors for some businesses. The paper stresses that e-commerce is not so much a competitive option as it is a competitive necessity for the contemporary organization.

From the Paper
"New retail models based on e-commerce that have established an entirely new sales channel are of considerable economic importance, yet represent but one form of business operations or transactions conducted through electronic media that comprise e-commerce. Other equally valid e-commerce models include internal transactions within a small business or provision of information to an external organization without charge; i.e. a service provider where the revenue, if any, is not generated directly from the small business process transaction."

Abstract
This paper explains that e-commerce facilitates the emergence of new small businesses as solely e-commerce-based entering the business world as a virtual companies and traders, because the use of the internet reduces the monetary investment needed for real estate, staffing and other associated costs associated with a "brick and mortar" company. The author points out that the internet enables information, services and value to be transferred seamlessly around the globe; thereby, e-commerce enables small and medium-sized firms to participate in international trade and for small and large companies to have equal access to this medium. The paper relates that e-commerce has obvious implications for the internationalization of Australian business, specifically on small businesses and the Australian economy as a whole, which otherwise is isolated physically from the main global centers of commerce.
From the Paper
"This business has embraced the opportunities that e-commerce and the internet has to offer. A small privately owned company, You Name It Labels Pty Ltd have found a niche in the market with their product and have invested in advertising in areas most likely to reach its primary target market. By embarking on an e-business venture this company has a strong internet presence for their product as many small businesses in Australia still shy from this medium - thus presenting less competition. Their website is concise and accessible and has far increased potential for increased trade that mail order, which would be the traditional form this business would have taken."
