            Abstract : 
This paper describes our work in the field of semantic interoperability in Pan-European Public Services. After introducing a layered interoperability model, a typology of Pan-European Public Services is provided. This typology expresses our view on cross-border services and analyzes the heavily-used "cross-border services" term. Furthermore, we identify some recurring patterns of semantic interoperability conflicts in public service provision as they occur in a cross-border setting
