Reference Modeling

Reference Modeling: Efficient Information Systems Design Through Reuse of Information Models

This book examines reference modeling from different perspectives. It discusses reference modeling languages that provide special modeling language concepts for the development and application of reference models. The book also covers reference modeling methodologies, which additionally provide procedure models for the construction and application of reference models, as well as particular reference models.
