Project Number

SC32 Seoul Metamodel Framework Model: A set of related objects to represent a concept Metamodel: Model which describes other model Meta-Metamodel: Model which describes Metamodels

SC32 Seoul Metamodel Framework A minimal set of well designed Meta-Metamodels which describes Metamodels in order to obtain the efficient and consistent exchanging of both Metamodel and domain specific models which were described each Metamodels.

Issues for the Project

SC32 Seoul Out of our Concerns Modeling Facilities Transformation Ontology Contents Ontology Transformation Contents of Modeling Constructs Development of Domain models

SC32 Seoul Issues for the Project MOF/XMI PAS proceeding MOF Extensions with OMG MOF2.0 project Defining an overall structure of the Framework and the core. Provide bases for Specifying each metamodel Linkage to Business Transaction Semantics Give incentives to other group to register their metamodels

SC32 Seoul Standardization Issues for Core Framework Define Meta-metamodel Extending MOF (collaborative works with OMG MOF2.0 projects ) Prepare Normative Ontology and Terminology to be used in defining metamodels Prepare Normative Constructs to be used in defining metamodels Define minimum Initial contents for each Metamodels Define Registration Procedures

Project Work Items & Schedule

SC32 Seoul Activities MOF PAS ballots Editing and Resolutions Extensions of MOF as a meta-metamodel Overall structure of the Framework M-Metamodels for Ontology M-Metamodel for Mapping M-Metamodel for Modeling constructs Linkage to Business Transaction Semantics (With WG1)

SC32 Seoul Schedule for Core MMF Sub ProjectProject #LeaderWDCD MOF/XMI RAS MOF Extension for MMF Metamodel for Ontology Metamodel for Modeling Constructs Metamodel for Mapping Metamodel for Registration Further divisions of sub projects are needed.

MOF/XMI PAS Submission from OMG It was discussed at the Helsinki Meeting (Nov. 2001) that should we invite MOF/XMI to SC32 or not. Due to an unexpected accident at OMG, the process has been not active. However, OMG has reinitiated the task and committed to submit PAS to JTC1 by the end of August.

SC32 Seoul MOF/XMI PAS Schedule Submission of PAS Balloting at JTC1 Editing & Resolution of Comments An OMG MOF2.0 Project The MMF project will be in charge of the role

SC32 Seoul MOF2.0 Project in OMG OMG issued those 7 RFPs on theMOF –MOF20 Core –XMI for MOF20 –MOF20 to CORBA IDL Mapping –MOF20 to Java Mapping –MOF20 Versioning and Life Cycle Management –MOF20 Query/View/Transformation (Oct.2002) –MOF20 Federation/Facility/Directory
