caBIG® VCDE Workspace
Tactics thru June 14, 2010:How working groups
fit together, and other activities
Brian Davis
April 1, 2010
VCDE WS Teleconference
Goals of Multiple Working Groups
1.Contribute to SAIF-ECCF Implementation Guide• Explicit descriptions of how Interoperability will
work in caBIG according to ECCF (and other aspects of SAIF)
• Link
2.Contribute to Arch and VCDE WS Operational Planning • “XC WS Version 2.0”• Processes and Work in XC WS post June 14,
2010

Contributions to ECCF IMPL Guide (2)
• IMPL Guide Link: https://wiki.nci.nih.gov/x/fldyAQ
• Description of Groups link: https://wiki.nci.nih.gov/x/_WNyAQ
• Groups (Not restricted to XC WS, rather applicable across caBIG):• Data Service (caBIO) ECCF-style Specification• Analytical Service (BioSpecimen) ECCF-style
Specification• SAIF – Effects on Mentoring• SAIF – Effects on Interoperability Reviews• SAIF - Effects on CDE Reviews• SAIF – Effects on Vocabulary Reviews• SAIF – Effects on Workflow
Contributions to XC WS Operations “XC WS version 2.0”
• Pilot Groups link: https://wiki.nci.nih.gov/x/_WNyAQ • Standards (of interest to XC WS)• Training (XC WS Participants)• Coordination of groups (help communication
among the many XC WS groups)• Gap Analysis (XC WS from Here to There)• Fit together new activities (XC WS “There”)• Vocabulary KC and Grid KC: Role with XC WS in
future.
Illustration of issues: Interaction of “Mentoring” and “Interoperability reviews” and “Education and Training”
• Historically mentoring has meant:• Educating (Training) on caBIG compatibility guidelines• Educating (Training) on caBIG tools and processes• Informal review of artifacts (Design, specs, UML, XMI, CDEs,
APIs, etc.)• Help loading model (with Dianne Reeves team)• Help getting on caGrid• Collecting artifacts for Silver Level Compatibility reviews• Other questions and answers on caBIG compatibility• Formal review (formal results document) for Silver level
Compatibility• Usually additional mentoring, re-load of UML model into caDSR and
re-review was needed
Illustration of issues: Interaction of “Mentoring” and “Interoperability reviews” (2)
• Three different groups are examining much of these aspects:• SAIF-effects on Mentoring (concentrating on “Training and
Education” needed by caBIG)• SAIF-effects on Interoperability reviews (concentrating on
Informal review and formal review for certification needed by caBIG)
• Pilot Training (concentrating on how to efficiently and effectively train XC WS participants on SAIF/ECCF)
• They will need to coordinate and communicate• End result: Answers to these questions:
• DECONSTRUCT: What are the needs for training, education, mentoring, informal review and formal review (certification) for caBIG?
• How do XC WS participants learn best about SAIF and ECCF?
Other Groups in VCDE WS
• Requirements Elicitation for Semantic Infrastructure • Req. from Community, develop use cases, traceability• Denise Warzel
• Standards bodies• Engagement with W3C and CTS2 (Common Terminology
Services 2)• Reporting and communication of Standard Bodies engagement
• Representation and advertisement of Vocabularies for Usage• caBIG• NCRI• NCBO
• Vocabulary Reviews of ICD (International Classification of Disease)
Semantic Concept of Operations (Semantic Infrastructure)
• https://cabig-kc.nci.nih.gov/Vocab/KC/index.php/SI_Conop_The_Semantic_Infrastructure_View
• https://cabig-kc.nci.nih.gov/Vocab/KC/index.php/SI_Conop_Initiatives
• The caBIG Semantic Infrastructure and its operational model will be extended to provide integrated support for: • Initiative 1.
Distributed, federated metadata repositories and model repositories and operations.
• Initiative 2. Automated generation of metadata from line-of-business artifacts. • Initiative 3. Rules management and contracts support (behavioral semantics) • Initiative 4. Semantics support for W3C service oriented architecture
resources. • Initiative 5. HL7 CTS II/ OMG MIF compliant federated terminology services. • Initiative 6. Controlled biomedical terminology, ontology and metadata
content. • Initiative 7. Assessment of semantic unification of compositional and
derivational models

Process
• Updates to VCDE WS on VCDE WS Teleconferences thru June 14.• Also: Wiki Sites available now: read and provide
feedback (on wiki)• Presentations at upcoming XC WS F2F (June 2-4th,
2010)• Opportunity for feedback to groups for final revisions to
whitepapers and recommendations• Final Research, Whitepapers, and Recommendations
due no later than June 14, 2010.• Provide to XC WS Leadership and caBIG leadership for
decisions.
