MFI-1 2nd Edition

• Illustrate the over view on multiple partsstandard and their relationship

• Provide a guideline for development ofstandards to keep consistency among differentparts in the MFI family of standards

• Provide introductory basic idea for betterunderstanding MFI family of standards forusers.

2

Scope

• The metamodel framework forInteroperability(MFI) family of standardsconsists of standardized metamodels whichare to be used in the registering model,ontology, services and role & goals to facilitatethe interoperation among existing systems orregistries.

Change history of MFI

• Originally, it started with the “Collection ofRegistry Metamodel ”

• Define of common metamodel for varioustypes of modeling facilities

(ontology, process, service, data models)

• Collection of Metamodels for Registeringmodels

10

Purpose of MFI standards

• Promote “Information Interoperability ”

– Information Sharing

– System Interoperability

– Service Interoperability

– Registry Interoperability

Regulation & Standards

Registry:official or formal record of information, or the place where such records are kept.

Registration in MFI

• Standardize of Administrative Information oftarget models (owner, registration date, )

• Essence of the target model and its componentsto be recorded into model information

• The structure of the model information werestandardized as metamodels

• Model information keep the location of targetmodel then target model instances were notstored in the MFI registries.

• Assume that target models were stored in therepository outside of MFI registries.

Registry Interoperation

Registry Summary

• A small artifact that describes own registryitself.

• It is attached to the registry as a headerinformation by meta tag

• A collection of those information formulates aROR (Registry of Registres)

ModelingConcept

Modeling Concept

• Concept to be applied in a modeling efforts tocapture a UOD( Universe of Discourse )

– Entity and Relationship (E/R, IDEF1X,)

– Object and Relationship (UML, )

– Object and Binary Relationship (NIAM)

– Etc.

32

Metamodel

• A model which describe other models

• A metamodel is a specification of model

Metamodel for Registration

1. It must have the Identified Item &Administered Item

2.Is it common modeling facilities?

3.Is it only structured pointers to existingmodel components outside?
