    • Short Term Goal: Build limited-scope Common Semantic Model (COSMO)
    • Deliverables within the next 6 months: TBD
  • Key Differentiation (with the other communities presenting today): Actual collaborative construction of a common semantic model is part of the community activity; maintaining pointers resources to ongoing KCS work and providing recommendations to builders of registry systems are associated activities.
  • What we can bring to the table to foster collaboration with other communities here today: A forum and method to maintain and relate the high-level concepts in each community KCS to permit accurate translation of knowledge from one community's representation to that of annother.
