1. Data exchange standard
Data exchange means the problem to transforming the data structured under a schema (the source schema), into data structured under another schema (the target schema). Unlike data integration means the synthesis from data of different source schemas into one virtual source schema; virtual because the data remain in the sources.

2. Document management system
Document Management Systems (DMS) are computer systems that focus on the management of electronic documents of any format. The classical case is the archiving. DMS are used primarily for internal purposes (i.e. managing the electronic documents of an organisation or department) rather than for presenting the documents for public consumption.
