This paper presents the current status of the FUNSIEC project, which is a feasibility project that aims at evaluating the potential use of Semantic Resources (SRs) in e-business matters, through the development of the Open Semantic Infrastructure for the European Construction Sector (OSIECS). This infrastructure is designed within the scope of the FUNSIEC framework. The requirements of OSIECS are identified, the SRs to compose OSIECS are selected, the OSIECS Meta-schema/Schema are created through the application of mapping techniques to the respective Meta-schemas/Schemas of the selected SRs, the conceptual architecture of OSIECS is designed, and the preliminary picture of the OSIECS infrastructure is drawn. This work discusses all these topics.
