title: Harmonizing the semantics of technical terms by the generic component model.
abstract: Working interoperability not only requires harmonized system's architectures, but also the same interpretation of technical specifications in order to guide the development process. This paper analyzes the commonly used terms to introduce different kinds of coded concepts by an alignment with the Generic Component Model (GCM).
