Reference Models for E-Services Integration Based on Life-Events

摘要

Modelling life events is a task of a crucial importance and a first necessary step towards supporting resolution of a particular life event on the active e-govemment portal. The use of reference models as templates for building life-event models promises savings in time and costs of the modelling process. At the same time, using reference models can increase the quality and accuracy of the established models. The paper proposes a complete set of life-event reference models at different abstraction levels that allows for modelling and implementing virtually any life event. The types of reference models range from a general one that provides template for any life-event model, to reference models specialized for establishing models of a specific life event in a specific country or a region or tailored to a set of specific user circumstances and needs.
