Think I'm going into better relationships with models, metamodels and their representations. Or so it seems so. There is another attempt commited in the repo, and counting... What I'm fighting on now with is to being able to have a kind of upper level ontology with temporal semantics and expressive enough to provide means of understanding instances of, for example, a doctor as a merchant, a patient as a customer of that merchant and a diagnose as a service transaction, using consumer/provider and others as super concepts in common but not stating the correlation explicitly. That could allow the integration with existing platforms as it was commented. The issue of models and their representations being parts of purposeful flows is intended to be regarded as very important, implementing the ability to render an agent 'mental model' in an interaction on a given context and with model exchange via dialogs using prompts as callbacks to the user. For this search for: DCI (design pattern). Regards, Sebastian.
