The information model is independent of platform, language, and protocol, and serves as a common consensual lexicon for the I2NFS architecture as well as clients using this architecture. This enables multiple application- specific data models (which are dependent on platform, language, and/or protocol) to be built from this information model. The advantage of doing so is to ensure that such data models will be able to share and reuse consensually defined concepts, thereby increasing interoperability.}, }
