ebXML Registry used for semantic interoperability of pan-European eGovernment services

Interoperability is a key factor for the implementation of pan-European eGovernment services. The questions of seamless data exchange between countries with different administrative, technical and linguistic background require considerations and solutions for the technical, semantic, and organisational dimensions of interoperability.

The IDABC programme (Interoperable Delivery of European eGovernment Services to public Administrations, Businesses and Citizens) of the European Commission addresses these challenges through coordinating common rules for collaboration and related infrastructure projects. The SEMIC.EU project belongs to the IDABC infrastructure measures. Its objective is to promote the harmonisation of interoperability assets that are the basis for cross-border eGovernment services. More precisely, SEMIC.EU is supposed to promote the reuse of syntactic (e.g. XML schemas) and semantic assets (e.g. ontologies) needed for semantic interoperability. Once online, SEMIC.EU will provide these interoperability assets via a public web repository to interested stakeholders in European public administrations.

The project also responds to the request to "share experiences and solutions" that is postulated in the i2010 Initiative.

SEMIC.EU is designed to become the single point of reference for semantic interoperability in pan-European eGovernment ventures. The initial version of the new platform will be launched in May 2008 under this domain.

[..]

The metadata registry for the interoperability assets will be based on open standards from the OASIS consortium (OASIS/ebXML Registry Information Model and OASIS/ebXML Registry Services Specification)."
