Social Sciences, Humanities, and Computer Sciences are very different scientific domains. Even if similar scientific vocabulary is used, the meaning can be different, and approaches to address research problems can differ considerably. As a foundation for future interdisciplinary scientific research and work in the domain of Digital Hermeneutics, it is therefore essential to build a common understanding and a common scientific vocabulary. Additionally, visualizing a workflow facilitates shaping a common understanding and bringing the two scientific domains closer together while also highlighting differences in comparison to other scientific domains. Therefore, this paper aims at building an initial version of a reference model for scientific work and research in the scientific domain of Digital Humanities as a baseline for discussion during the workshop Digital Hermeneutics II: Sources, Analysis, Interpretation, Annotation, and Curation - Annual Conference of the Research Cluster digital_culture at the FernUniversität in Hagen. This reference model addresses both the need for a common vocabulary and the need to have a model to structure work and facilitate all phases of the research workflow.
