This open access book discusses advances in semantic interoperability for materials modelling
aiming at integrating data obtained from different methods and sources into common frameworks
and facilitating the development of platforms where simulation services in computational
molecular engineering can be provided as well as coupled and linked to each other in a
standardized and reliable way. The Virtual Materials Marketplace (VIMMP) which is open to all
service providers and clients provides a framework for offering and accessing such services
assisting the uptake of novel modelling and simulation approaches by SMEs consultants and
industrial R&D end users. Semantic assets presented include the EngMeta metadata schema for
research data infrastructures in simulation-based engineering and the collection of ontologies
from VIMMP including the ontology for simulation modelling and optimization (OSMO) and the
VIMMP software ontology (VISO).
