Are there dependencies between e-business frameworks and their standardization? How are vendors, users, and institutions involved in the standardization of e-business frameworks? To what extent are the different frameworks complements or substitutes? How does e-business framework standardization relate to economics of standardization? This paper answers these questions by presenting four propositions on e-business frameworks that use Extensible Markup Language (XML). We also claim that some economic findings and suggestions related to vendor driven standards on physical products are irrelevant, as the e-business framework specifications are end products of standardization and they are used by end-user companies instead of individuals.

E-business, which is a manifestation of this development, relies on efficient information sharing within and between companies. E-business requires interoperability of information systems and, therefore, standardization of information sharing. An e-business framework is a standard for information sharing within and between companies. Tens of e-business frameworks have been standardized so that they utilize XML (Extensible Markup Language). This paper analyzes the properties and standardization of 12 prominent XMLbased e-business frameworks. The analysis focuses on the commonalities, differences and regularities between these e-business frameworks and their standardization.
