Abstract
Enterprise Interoperability (EI) is a well established area of applied research that addresses the problems related with the lack of systems and applications' interoperability in organizations, and proposes novel solutions for EI problems. However, in spite of research efforts to date, the proper scientific foundations for EI remain elusive. This lack has been preventing the generalization and full reuse of the methods and tools that have been developed so far, and is threatening the sustainability of EI as a domain for research. The recently-posed challenge of developing an Enterprise Interoperability Science Foundation prompted some academic agents to attempt a systematization of the Interoperability Body of Knowledge (IBoK). This paper presents some aspects concerning the levels of specificity of the Interoperability academic work, by considering Models, Theories and Frameworks in the context of the Enterprise Interoperability Science Foundation's recent work, providing a summary of the current state of play regarding the work developed by the Enterprise Interoperability (EI) at the European Commission's Future Internet Enterprise Systems (FInES) cluster.
