Common Statistical Production Architecture – CSPA 2014: A
set of CSPA services to be built
6 of 20
How to build CSPA services: input and output to be carefully
designed
7 of 20
How to build CSPA services: service behaviour, i.e. what is
inside, needs to be defined
8 of 20
How CSPA services fit within existing investments?
9 of 20
Vision 2020: Off-the-shelf CSPA services?
10 of 20
Use GSIM for definition of Input/Output services in CSPA:
one of the first practical uses of GSIM → need more
experience … Who is the expert?

Inter-NSI benefits: saving re-use
12 of 20
Intra-NSI benefits: standards! (EU-driven)

Service Catalogue as a Knowledge Base for CSPA
containing not only services but also concepts and
building blocks
14 of 20
How to translate GSIM concepts into ontology?
15 of 20
Is GSIM an ontology for statisticians?
16 of 20
Two challenges / provocations on GSIM/CSPA: are we
able to answer ?
17 of 20
CSPA Service Vs Web Service: why it's not enough just
to use web service technology? What does CSPA offer
in addition to that?
18 of 20
Why not use directly
Semantic Web (RDFbased technology) to
implement GSIM?
