1. SUPERSITES COORDINATION WORKSHOP Brussels,Belgium 2013 June 10-11 Implementation of Multi-disciplinary Interoperability Infrastructure and contribution to GEO/GEOSS Stefano Nativi MED-SUV, National Research Council of Italy (CNR-IIA)

2. Multi-disciplinary and Multi-organizational Infrastructure • Interoperabilityacrossheterogeneous (disciplinary) realms • DifferentSocietal Benefit Areas • Diverse Communities of Practice • Interoperability (types/levels)across heterogeneous organizations (i.e. Systems, Capacities, Networks, ….) • Differentmaturitylevel Disciplines

4. How to pursueInteroperability? • Two main (complementary) approaches • Systems Federation(i.e. Standardization) • Controlled and mature environments • System Brokering (i.e. Mediation) • Complex and rapidly-evolving environments Standard model My Data Model • My Data Model • My Data Model • My Data Model

9. System of Systems (Network of Networks) principles • Buildon existing (disciplinary) system/network infrastructures (i.e. Universes and Planets) • Supplement but not supplant system/network (i.e. Community) mandates and governance arrangements • Addressheterogeneityto lowerentry barriers avoidingto impose any common (federal) technology • Be flexible and extensible to • Interconnect newsystem/network (Community) infrastructures • Sustainand advance the achieved interoperability • Alloweach system/network (i.e. Community) infrastructure to evolve

10. Brokering Benefits • Lowers barriers to participation in distributed systems for both users and resource providers • minimal burden or cost impact on existing systems; • Acceleratesinterconnection of disparate systems; • Facilitates sustainability, reusability, extensibility, and flexibility of the infrastructure • Enhances multi-disciplinary interoperability via introduction of new capabilities across multiple domains; • Removes need to impose common (e.g. federal, “top-down”) specifications and software components enabling a more adaptive “bottom-up” evolution of the infrastructure
