Abstract

The chapter argues that any distinction between “e-business” and “infrastructure” is artificial. It shows that the lower-level techncial standards that make up the ICT infrastructure exert a direct impact on the e-business standards and systems that are using it. Accordingly, any assessment of the effect of standards on e-business has to take into account all layers of standards.
