see https://github.com/International-Data-Spaces-Association/InformationModel/discussions/589#discussioncomment-4013812 for discussion.

in a nutshell, profiles should be published in a way that: 1) allows profile to be unambiguously identified with a URI 2) resolves the URI to machine-readable and human readable descriptions 3) flexible use of appropriate standards to publish machine readable resources 4) allow profiles to be combined and specialised to describe actual interoperability scopes.

the PROF (profiles vocabulary)[1] is published by the W3C DXWG to support these requirements, and could be applied immediately in this case.
