Report on Workshop on Interoperability in Materials Modelling

The objective of the workshop was for EMMC to seek the support of and endorsement by the wider materials modelling community for the European Materials Modelling Ontology (EMMO). EMMC is also gathering requirements and outlining plans for interoperability between data repositories and marketplaces.
The workshop discussed recent developments in interoperability approaches in materials modelling and related fields, following on from discussions at the First EMMC International Workshop in April 2017 Vienna. In particular, this workshop focused on semantic interoperability based on a European Materials Modelling Ontology (EMMO) which is currently being developed. EMMO will form the basis for interoperability and domain specific metadata.
