TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide some of the answers to the questions of how have key requirements for interoperability changed over that time? How can we understand the full scope of interoperability issues? What has shaped research on information system interoperability? What key progress has been made?
Abstract: Interoperability has been a basic requirement for the modern information systems environment for over two decades. How have key requirements for interoperability changed over that time? How can we understand the full scope of interoperability issues? What has shaped research on information system interoperability? What key progress has been made? This chapter provides some of the answers to these questions. In particular, it looks at different levels of information system interoperability, while reviewing the changing focus of interoperability research themes, past achievements and new challenges in the emerging global information infrastructure (GII). It divides the research into three generations, and discusses some of achievements of the past. Finally, as we move from managing data to information, and in future knowledge, the need for achieving semantic interoperability is discussed and key components of solutions are introduced.

TL;DR: The authors suggest that seeking solution(s) to the interoperability problem should include an analysis of an interoperability value proposition in the AEC sector, i.e., at the business level.

TL;DR: A general model dealing with various levels of conceptual interoperability that goes beyond the technical reference models for interoperable solutions is introduced, intended to become a bridge between the conceptual design and the technical design for implementation, integration, or federation.
Abstract: Interoperability of systems is not a cookie-cutter-function. There are various levels of interoperability between two systems ranging from no interoperability to full interoperability. In the technical domain, various models for levels of interoperability already exist and are used successfully to determine the degree of interoperability between information technology systems. However, such models are not yet established in the domain of conceptual modeling. This paper introduces a general model dealing with various levels of conceptual interoperability that goes beyond the technical reference models for interoperable solutions. The model is intended to become a bridge between the conceptual design and the technical design for implementation, integration, or federation. It should also contribute to the standardization of V&V procedures as well as to the documentation of systems that are designed to be federated. It is furthermore a framework to determine in the early stages of the federation development process whether meaningful interoperability between systems is possible. To this end, the scope of the model goes beyond the implementation level of actual standards, which focus on the exchange of data using standardized formats and interfaces. Another practical application of the model is, that it enhances the only recently published DoD Net-Centric Data Strategy for the Global Information Grid (GIG) and is directly applicable to derive necessary metadata to reach the DoD Data Goal to "enable Data to be understandable."
