Definition
As per wikipedia;
"Interoperability is a property of a product or system, whose interfaces are completely understood, to work with other products or systems, present or future, without implementation or any restrictions in access. While the term was initially defined for information technology or systems engineering services to allow for information exchange, a more broad definition takes into account social, political, and organizational factors that impact system to system performance."
