ConclusioNs • The Model Web aims to support the science of tomorrow building an ecosystemofinteractingmodels and facing the relatedchallenges (i.e. multidisciplinarity, scalability, etc.). • In the Model Web users focus on high-levelrepresentations (i.e. abstract Business Processes); lowerleveldetails are in charge of the middleware. • Building meaningfulmultidisciplinaryBPsrequiresknowledgebasessupporting the interaction with and between Science and Policy components • The GEO URR can provide the knowledge (applications/BPs, lexicon/vocabularies) required to implement the GEO Model Web vision.
