Abstract :
Current fashion systems to interconnect large software architectures are moving toward SOA based solutions. This new paradigm for designing system can be improved, in our opinion, by using semantics. Semantics can a play a main role in boosting interoperability thanks to current technologies to express knowledge and to describe semantic Web services (SWS). This paper tackles the provision of a Software Architecture for eGovernment by means of LifeEvents, a semantic modeling tool to describe services in the domain deeply discussed in the paper.
