2 The Object Management Group™ (OMG™) OMG is an international, open membership, not-for-profit computer industry consortium OMG Task Forces develop enterprise integration standards for a wide range of technologies, including: Analysis & Design, Architecture-Driven Modernization and Middleware Business Modeling and Integration Real-time, Embedded and Specialized Systems C4I, Finance, Government, Healthcare, Legal Compliance, Life Sciences Research, Manufacturing Technology, Robotics, Software-Based Communications and Space

3 OMG’s Modeling Standards Enable powerful visual design, execution and maintenance of software and other processes, including Systems Modeling and Business Process Management MDA® is Model Driven Architecture®, a vendor-neutral approach for developing platform independent models that document business functionality and behavior, separate from the technology that implements it UML® is the Unified Modeling Language® for modeling application structure, behavior, and architecture, business process, and data structure SysML is the Systems Modeling Language for modeling hardware, software, data, personnel, procedures, and facilities

4 Systems Engineering Domain Special Interest Group (SE DSIG) Jointly chartered by OMG and International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) in 2001 Focused on standards for system modeling UML for SE: SysML adoption beginning in April ‘06 UML Profile for DODAF/MODAF (UPDM) RFP issued in Sept 05 Model Driven Architecture (MDA) for SE Just starting SE DSIG Site at

5 UML Profile for DoDAF/MODAF (UPDM) UPDM is: An industry standard UML/SysML specification for the representation & exchange of DoDAF and MODAF architecture descriptions Being standardized by Object Management Group (OMG) Available at

6 Motivation for UPDM Significantly enhance the quality, productivity, and effectiveness associated with architecture and system of systems modeling Promote architecture model reuse and maintainability Improve tool interoperability and communications between stakeholders Reduce training impacts due to different tool implementations and semantics Develop UML Profile for DoDAF/MODAF that provides industry standard UML/SysML representation & exchange of DoDAF/MODAF architecture descriptions
