This session will commence with the description of a proposed Advanced 
Technology Project to create an active object oriented business model of 
commerce on the Internet for the first two decades of the next century, 
which we refer to as SmartModel 2020.  This model will be relevant to each 
of the three major electronic commerce areas: business-to-business 
commerce, business-to-consumer commerce, and enterprise computing. 
SmartModel is dynamic by adapting to environmental changes (including 
cultural, and regulatory) and in enabling users to ask enterprise specific 
"what if" types of questions to measure the systemic effects of different 
future scenarios from different views of electronic commerce. The session 
will then be open for comments and general discussion.
