contributes to the implementation of semantic interoperability Ability of computer systems to transmit data with unambiguous, shared meaning. Semantic interoperability is a requirement to enable machine computable logic, inferencing, knowledge discovery, and data federation between information systems. Semantic interoperability is achieved when the information transferred has, in its communicated form, all of the meaning required for the receiving system to interpret it correctly, even when the algorithms used by the receiving system are unknown to the sending system. Syntactic interoperability is a prerequisite to semantic interoperability. Semantic interoperability ensures that the precise format and meaning of exchanged data and information is preserved and understood throughout exchanges between parties; in other words, what is sent is what is understood. https://orcid.org/0000-0002-5214-4466 https://orcid.org/0000-0002-7702-4495 https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2687-1982 I2.
