Hva er situasjon i Norge i forhold til andre land? Norge antagelig det eneste land i Europa som nedprioriterer arbeidet med (semantisk) interoperabilitet Grunner? Semantisk interoperabilitet er vanskelig å forstå og administrere og må sees på som en langsiktig investering (Roma) Hvem skaper begrepene? Hvem eier dataene? Samspill mellom teknologiene savnes DIFI har nå tatt det initiativet som FAD etterlot seg Etableres nå et samarbeid mellom Tyskland, Frankrike, Italia og Norge (DIFI og NorStella) med Datakonferenz i Berlin på nyåret?
CEN/ISSS WS egov-share Discovery of and access to egovernment Resources CEN Workshop Agreement current draft http://www.egovpt.org/fg/cwa_version_3 Workshop Chair: Karl Wessbrandt Swedish Administrative Development Agency echallenges Stockholm 2008-10-22
The challenge egovernment programmes are faced with need to cooperate and share all types of resources published electronically under the responsibility of public authorities. Nationally: create joined-up government EU Directives (Service, PSI, INSPIRE) Respect national, regional and local autonomy in selecting systems and technologies Cooperation needs common layer for exchange of information
Our scope Facilitate exchange and consolidation of multi-source information Between registry owners and resource providers that are willing to share their assets Enable exchange of information, not standardizing local solutions Focus on resource federation, not distributed searching Presupposes prior decisions and agreements on what to share with whom - not discovery of repositories Example implementation based on Topic Maps and ATOM feeds
Sharing of egovernment resources CEN Workshop Agreement structure Part 0: Introduction and overview Part 1a: Reference Ontology and Metadata Schema Part 1b: Protocol for Syndication of Semantic Descriptions Part 2: Federation of Terminological Resources Part 3: Establishment of a set of Soft Cultural Elements Part 4: Evaluation and Recommendations
The project Workshop sponsored by EC Support the goals of the Workshop in practical terms Not just paperwork Tools and guidelines to help sharing A practical approach for designers and developers A project team with five appointed experts: Sven Abels (TIE, NL) Makx Dekkers (AMI Consult, LU) Marc Küster (Univ. Worms, DE) Graham Moore (Networked Planet, UK) Mike Pluke (Castle Consulting, UK) Supported by a Steering Committee

CWA Part 2 Federated Terminological Resources Semantic Interoperability Management Principles Different authorities usually use: 1. different terms to describe resources 2. different interfaces to publish them and 3. different ways of semantics to understand and interpret data that has been exchanged
CWA Part 2 Federated Terminological Resources Terminological Resource Network: Realization and Integration Define relationships between terms (the N of <Term rdf:id=" Term17 >... </Term> the TRN) <Language rdf:id="enus >...</Language> <Term rdf:id="term_18"> <name>municipality</name> <language rdf:resource="#enus"/> <relationship rdf:resource="#synonym_2"/> </Term> <Synonym rdf:id="synonym_2"> <destinationterm rdf:resource="#term17"/> </Synonym> 15
CWA Part 2 Federated Terminological Resources Highlights of Part 2: usage of widely accepted standards for expressing semantics (e.g. OWL) support of two popular access mechanisms (WebServices and REST) support of multiple output formats (XTM, SKOS, XML, etc.) possibilities for integrating existing resource repositories (e.g. ADNOM) extendibility for additional formats and interfaces.
CWA Part 3 Establishment of a set of Soft Cultural Elements Initially proposed candidates for consideration include: a mapping of countries/regions and languages, including status information, second language (third-language, etc.) usage and proficiency; forms of written and spoken salutations, including usage ( how-do-you-do-logy ); rules relating to personal names, both form and usage: (a) given names and family names in relation to spouse, parents, other family; (b) use of first name, last name ; 17
CWA Part 3 Establishment of a set of Soft Cultural Elements 18
CWA Part 3 Establishment of a set of Soft Cultural Elements Highlights of Part 3: soft cultural elements to ensure that translated egovernment resources : appear natural and consistent with local cultural expectations are presented in a way that does not: offend people by breaking important local cultural conventions confuse people by adopting incorrect cultural conventions that can create a completely inaccurate impression integration of soft cultural elements into the Unicode CLDR will make their use a natural part of the localization process of egovernment resources machine readable versions of the typographic conventions described in the EU Interinstitutional style guide could be provided for the first time 19
CWA Part 4 Evaluation and Recommendations Purpose and scope Part 4 will focus on evaluating the outcome of the CWA It is split into 3 main chunks : 1. Test scenarios for part 1 and part 2 2. Providing an approach for ensuring continuous operation 3. Outcome summary, recommendations and roadmap 20
Next steps Incorporation of comments from Rome meeting Next version CWA (version 4) scheduled for early November 2008 Public comment period mid-november 2008 through mid-january 2009 Soliciting verification and contributions from the community Final version CWA (version 5) for discussion at next meeting Next meeting in Brussels, 3 February 2009

What to expect from egovshare I do not believe that cross-border -services is a vital issue for Norway EU Directive for Services is a hot political issue in Norway I do however believe that cross-sectorial services based on semantics is essential Everyone talks about common elements as part of a SOAarchitecture The main issue is re-use of common concepts across sectors More efficient Adding value Easier to create new services We do believe and have expectations to the Federated Termonological Resources based on a repository/registry We do look forward to the results of this project to gain some knowledge that can be used in Norway as well But: Where have all the Core Components gone???
