“…Although there is a standard encoding of Greek legislation (as presented in Section 3.1), there is no standard encoding for the codification of amendments or repeals. This is a challenge for any work [10,4] like ours to which we offer the following solution. By the analysis of a large corpus of Greek legislation and the consultation of Greek government officials, we have defined three main types of legislative modifications: insertion, repeal, and substitution.…”

In this work, we study how legislation can be published as open data using semantic web technologies. We focus on Greek legislation and show how it can be modeled using ontologies expressed in OWL and RDF, and queried using SPARQL. To demonstrate the applicability and usefulness of our approach, we develop a web application, called Nomothesia, which makes Greek legislation easily accessible to the public. Nomothesia offers advanced services for retrieving and querying Greek legislation and is intended for citizens through intuitive presentational views and search interfaces, but also for application developers that would like to consume content through two web services: a SPARQL endpoint and a RESTful API. Opening up legislation in this way is a great leap towards making governments accountable to citizens and increasing transparency.

“…In literature, authors present experiences to achieve interoperability at semantic level [9,10] and successful experiences consuming and producing linked open data [11]. Authors of previous studies [12–15] have studied the use of metadata to describe e-Government services in Web Pages, using different annotation technologies as microformats, microdata [16], RDFa [17] or JSON-LD [18], but not associated with data exchanges, but associated with pages published in websites. In the case of social security information systems, metadata should describe data involved in information exchanges between social security institutions.…”

Semantic interoperability issues of international e-Government data exchanges have not been solved up until now. In the case of social security institutions, the data exchange operations have some particularities that make that the non-ambiguous definition of core concepts used in the institutions has a key impact on the success and quality of system interconnections. In this article, we present the result of a research to implement a new metadata specification based in Dublin Core elements for international social security exchanges, named Exchange Social Security Information Metadata (ESSIM). This proposal is based in a semantic approach using Linked Data for Interoperability, with technologies, such as RDF(S), SPARQL, Microdata and JSON-LD, in order to ensure interoperability between social security institutions from different countries. This will help to strengthen the protection of the social security rights of mobile workers by automating the application of international agreements on social security and to improve cross border communication between social security institutions of different countries. For the near future, the goal is to include this specification as part of information and communication technology Guidelines under development by International Social Security Association with the participation of authors of this article. This will facilitate a future adoption of the specification as an international standard.
