Federal Aviation Administration Presented to: Eurocontrol/SJU By: Mike Hritz Date: December 2009 System-Wide Information Management (SWIM) SWIM in General (Concept)

2 Federal Aviation Administration SWIM in General (Concept) December 2009 SWIM is:  A Concept  A Next Generation Air Transportation System (NextGen) Transformational Program  An FAA Technical Solution

3 Federal Aviation Administration SWIM in General (Concept) December 2009 Program Concept SWIM will: Implement a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) in the NAS Lower information costs Increase speed to establish new interfaces Increase common situational awareness Increase NAS agility SWIM is an IT infrastructure program that will operate in the background to provide data to authorized users

10 Federal Aviation Administration SWIM in General (Concept) December 2009 Governance Basics  Definition  Ensuring and validating that assets and artifacts within the architecture are acting as expected and maintaining a certain level of quality. (Gartner, 2007)  Components  WHO is responsible Governance Authority Service Providers Service Consumers  WHAT must they do Governance Policies Service Contracts  HOW must they do it Standards Governance Processes
