A reference model can represent the component parts of any consistent idea, from ...
Enterprise modelling is the process of building models of whole or part of an enterprise with process models, data models, resource models and/or new ontologies etc. It is based on knowledge about the enterprise, previous models and/or reference models as well as domain ontologies using model representation languages.

A cross-domain solution (CDS) is an integrated information assurance system composed of specialized software or hardware that provides a controlled interface to manually or automatically enable and/or restrict the access or transfer of information between two or more security domains based on a predetermined security policy.
The reference model for conceptual integration has been developed from a MDD point of view focusing on the enterprise applications and software system. MDI: Reference Model for conceptual integration. According to MDA, a Computation Independent Model (CIM) corresponds to a view defined by a computation independent viewpoint.
For example, how about something like this: A reference model is an abstract framework or domain-specific ontology (FORMAL CAUSE) consisting of an interlinked set of clearly defined concepts (MATERIAL CAUSE) produced by an expert or body of experts (EFFICIENT CAUSE) in order to encourage clear communication within some domain (FINAL CAUSE).
