Data Management Issues in Electronic Commerce (Panel) M. Tamer Özsu   View Paper (PDF)     View Slides (HTML)   Return to Panels Abstract Electronic commerce (e-commerce), in its most general definition, refers to selling and buying using electronic means over a computer network. In this context, it is not an entirely new activity; its genesis is traced back to the Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) activity in the 1960’s. EDI [1] refers to the set of activities that are related to the electronic facilitation of the transactions between vendors (merchants) and buyers (customers) (purchase orders, waybills, manifests and schedules). The current context of electronic commerce, sometimes referred to as "Internet commerce" [2] due to its dependence on the Internet as the underlying platform, is significantly wider.
