Abstract
The information model was conceived to address the complexities of managing large volumes of data, processes, designs, and tools that are shared by many business users with differing requirements. Because an information model derives much of its features from data models, the distinction between information modeling and data modeling is sometimes unclear. One perspective is that information modeling is context dependent: when a model is viewed as a representation scheme for users to comprehend, it is an information model. When used as a representation scheme to be processed by a computer, it is a data model.
