Enterprise interoperability framework

The framework defines the domains and sub-domains for interoperability research and development in order to identify a set of pieces of knowledge for solving enterprise interoperability problems by removing barriers to interoperability.

[5] These existing approaches constitute the basis for the enterprise interoperability framework.

The Enterprise Interoperability Framework allows to: The enterprise interoperability framework not only aims at structuring concepts, defining research domain and capturing knowledge but also at helping industries to solve their interoperability problems.

Using the framework, existing interoperability degrees can be characterized and targeted interoperability degrees can be defined as the objective to meet.

Then knowledge/solutions associated with the barriers and concerns can be searched in the framework, and solutions found will be proposed to users for possible adaptation and/or combination with other solutions to remove the identified barriers so that the required interoperability can be established.
