global e-commerce solutions for business, today introduced a set of revolutionary new XML technology tools delivered with
Commerce One's MarketSite Portal Solution 3.0.
This robust technology enables the rapid development and deployment of open XML-based portals, trading communities,

MarketSite Portal Solution 3.0 enables companies to quickly build business-to-business e-commerce portals,'' said Chuck
Donchess, vice president of marketing and business development, Commerce One.
Commerce One's XML technology and tools are ideal for trading partners and Internet market makers who want to accelerate
trading through B2B e-commerce. The new XML-based transaction platform enables heterogeneous systems to communicate and
allows different portals to interoperate and connect to the Commerce One Global Trading Web(TM). This comprehensive set of
schema-based XML tools includes:
- Commerce One XML Commerce Connector (XCC), provides all the
components necessary for trading partners to integrate with
Commerce One MarketSite. XCC includes a robust set of tools to
enable the creation, transmission, routing and processing of
XML-based documents.
- Schema for Object-Oriented XML (SOX), Commerce One's default
XML schema language is used by MarketSite to define business
documents.
- XML Common Business Library (xCBL) 2.0, a set of XML-based
building blocks and a document framework that helps developers
create business documents in Microsoft's XDR schema language
and Commerce One's SOX.
- An initial set of 11 pre-defined XML-based business documents,
such as purchase orders, invoices and product catalogs built
using xCBL.
- Commerce One XML Development Kit Pro (XDK Pro), the ideal
toolkit for building robust, extendable, document-based
e-commerce applications. By applying a Java-based programming
model to XML documents, XDK Pro makes programming schema-based
XML applications easier, safer, and more efficient.
''NECX is excited to utilize leading XML technology by leveraging Commerce One's xCBL building blocks for procurement
services,'' said Jim Sylvester, Manager, Business Development, NECX Direct, LLC. ''As xCBL becomes the industry standard,
