'''Reference model''', is a notion used in standard conceptual (computing) [[Computer model|computing models]]. A reference modelIt is an abstract representation of the entities and relationships involved in a problem space, and forms the conceptual basis for the development of more concrete models of the space, (and ultimately implementations, in a computing context). It thereby serves as an abstract template for the development of more specific models in somea given ___domain, and allows for comparison between complying models.

{{Disambig-cleanup|April 2006}}

Instances of reference models include, among others: the [[OSI model|Open Systems Interconnection Basic Reference Model]], the [[Open Geospatial Consortium]] reference models, the [[Von Neumann architecture]] as a sequential computing referential model, and the [[Federal Enterprise Architecture]] reference models.
