{{Short description|Abstract model used as reference}}
A '''reference model'''—in [[systems engineering|systems]], [[enterprise engineering|enterprise]], and [[software engineering]]—is an abstract framework or ___domain-specific [[ontology (information science)|ontology]] consisting of an interlinked set of clearly defined concepts produced by an expert or body of experts to encourage clear communication. A reference model can represent the component parts of any consistent idea, from business functions to system components, as long as it represents a complete set. This frame of reference can then be used to communicate ideas clearly among members of the same community.
