Abstract

The travel industry requires computerized standardization of the information exchanged between travel agents, transportation systems, and accommodation facilities. Consequently, the Japan Association of Travel Agents and the XML Consortium are currently engaged in efforts to standardize an XML format (called TravelXML) for electronic commerce in the travel industry. A new business model for the travel industry was recently proposed and tested by the XML Consortium, using TravelXML and web services. 15 XML Consortium company members participated in the experiment. In this paper, we show the results of applying TravelXML and web services to a real business model through the experiment.
