16. Suggested UML Guidance Goal is to provide reusable/searchable metadata for manual and automated curation methods Standardize CDEs from existing caDSR content Two acceptable UML models shown, in order of preference Highly recommended: UML model to fit proposed standard CDEs Acceptable: Use standard attribute and value domain if alternate class name is necessary

17. UML Model Guidance (Highly Recommended) Person Name Prefix Code - 2663165 Person United States Military Rank Name Prefix Code - 2665353 Map attributes to Standard CDEs UML Model

18. UML Model Guidance (Acceptable) Include a Class in a model with any Class name and attribute namePrefix (C54066:C25191). Map attribute to Value Domain Person Name Prefix Code (Public ID 2179427). [Object Class] Name Prefix Code Object Class - namePrefix (C25191:C54066) UML Model Use Template CDE to create new CDE from existing (Slides 13 and 15)
