The issue to exchange data provided by different computational solvers as well as required and used in different programming languages forms a request in specific formats signifying a strong non-uniformity for an easy nexus with other solvers. This non-uniformity has created a need to focus on intermittent state-of-theart data-centric software tools, which aim to bridge data exchange technology, to ensure heterogeneity across a wide range of solvers [1]. Moreover, data organization in the form of ontological representation and metadata structures are necessary to be prepared as a standard for a coherent representation of information regardless of the diverse nature of data formats specific to a scientific discipline. A domain ontology based on the European Materials & Modelling Ontology (EMMO) for galvanic corrosion is outlined and connected to corresponding concepts in a galvanic corrosion model. This fundamental work provides and discusses the concept, underlying terminology and working mechanism of a data-centric architecture for exchanging and interfacing data-flow between data sources/sinks and solvers. It realizes an ontological representation of physics and chemistry of galvanic corrosion. Thus, it is a nuclei for further improvement's of interoperability between complex corrosion related phenomena and models. It paves the way for accurate computational corrosion engineering.
