  Kalakota and Whinston(1997) refer to a range of different perspectives for e-commerce: 1 A communications perspective – the delivery of information, products or services or payment by electronic means. 2 A business process perspective – the application of technology towards the automation of business transactions and work- flows. 3 A service perspective – enabling cost cutting at the same time as increasing the speed and quality of service delivery. 4 An online perspective – the buying and selling of products and information online.

  E-Commerce Digitally enabled transactionsinclude all transactions mediated by digital technology. For the most part, this means transactions that occur over the Internet, the Web and/or via mobile apps. Commercial transactions involve the exchange of value (e.g., money) across organizational or individual boundaries in return for products and services. Exchange of value is important for understanding the limits of e-commerce. Without an exchange of value, no commerce occurs.

  Origins Although e-commerce isnot very old, it already has a tumultuous history. The history of e-commerce can be usefully divided into three periods: 1995–2000, the period of invention; 2001–2006, the period of consolidation; 2007–present, a period of reinvention with social, mobile, and local expansion.

  summarizes the evolutionof digital and web-related technologies  Since the Web 2.0 concept has been widely applied, it is natural that commentators would try to evolve the concept to Web 3.0, although the term hasn’t been widely applied to date. We can suggest that as web functionality evolves, these approaches which could be deemed ‘Web 3.0’ will become more important: 1.Web applications. Usage of web-based applications and services (like Google word processor and spreadsheets) using the web in this way is sometimes termed ‘cloud computing’ where all that is really needed for many activities is a computer with a web browser, with local software applications used less widely. 2. Syndication. Increased incorporation of syndicated content and services from other sites or a network into a site (using tools such as Yahoo! Pipes and XML exchange between widgets).

  3.Streamed video orIPTV. Increased use of streamed video from existing TV providers and user- generated content (as suggested by use of YouTube and IPTV services such as Joost); 4. Virtual worlds. Increased use of immersive virtual environments such as Second Life; 5. Personal data integration. Increased exchange of data between social networks fulfilling different needs (as indicated by the recent Google development of OpenSocial); 6. The semantic web. Increased use of semantic markup leading to the semantic web envisioned by Tim Berners-Lee over 10 years ago.
