Purpose: To expand on and update the EOSC Interoperability framework we have the following four sections related to semantic interoperability to address: “3.2.1 Problems and needs”, “3.2.2 Recommendations”, “5.1.3 Semantic view”, and “5.2.1 Semantic view”

Scope: Gather information from the TF members on existing national and international case studies that illustrate use cases related to how semantic artefacts are used to realise semantic interoperability. Including points on lessons learned, barriers, challenges, and opportunities.

Guidance: 

• You do not need to be exhaustive in recording all aspects of the project/organisation that your are looking at and it could be useful to narrow down the case studies to focus on those aspects of semantic interoperability that overlap with your current work

• Feel free to include an introduction/comment that describes how you approached recording a value to an element where the guidance from the template did not provide much help

• Use others’ case studies as examples, see PaRI-partners-guide (draft in progress) or any of the documents in Working documents / Case studies and use cases (TF members only)

What fields (elements) should the template include?

The following fields are described in the next section and should be used to record information about case studies / use cases in this subgroup:

• SI Case study name

• Case study version

• Current status

• Point of contact

• Reference to ”official project title”

• Discipline(s)/domain(s)

• Country(s)/Region(s)

• Time period

• Keywords

• Goals

• Links to TF charter

• Interactions

• Semantic Interoperability layer

• Potential use case(s) or user stories

• Technical Interoperability layer

• Organisational Interoperability layer

• Legal Interoperability layer

• Sustainability considerations

• Key take-home points
