Interoperability is a long-standing challenge slowing down the digitalization of mobility systems and the provision of full mobility-as-a-service offerings. This paper presents early results achieved by the SPRINT project (Semantics for PerfoRmant and scalable INteroperability of multimodal Transport), an integral part of the Shift2Rail IP4 work programme, in meeting the challenge. It introduces the conceptual architecture and describes the demonstrator implementation of the Interoperability Framework (IF), a solution designed to support servitization in the mobility domain in two directions: From the Travel Application perspective, the IF provides semantically-consistent abstractions of distributed ICT resources offered by Service Provider Companies, insulating them from the "mechanics" of operating remotely over networks and across multiple communication protocols and/or data formats; from the Service Provider Companies perspective, the IF allows leveraging their native ICT computing environment and resources as elements of an end-to-end integrated intermodal mobility solution, insulating them from the specifics of the customer front-end applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
