2. DoDAF v2.0 Meta Model
Under development by the DM2 Configuration Management (CM) group.
Consists of technical and discovery documents to support implementation of DoDAF v2.0 Views
Technical documents submitted to the DoD Metadata Registry
Discovery documents will be stored in a Metadata Catalog (e.g., NCES)
Currently, the DoDAF XSD’s as well as several supporting documents have neem uploaded to the DOD Metadata registry. These files and associated data are described in files DoDAF_XSD_data.xls and DoDAF_XSD_data.txt
ToDo – which Metadata catalog will we use?

3. Technical Documents DoDAF View XSD’s DoDAF Support XSD’s
UML EAP Documents
Misc XML and XLS Documents
Lists of document names and properties in file DoDAF_XSD_data.xls
ToDo – Determine how to access non XSD documents.
Should EAP reader be available with EAP’s?
Problem - the following works on Greg’s machine but not on mine

5. DoD Discovery Metadata Specification (DDMS) v2.0
Discovery Documents based on the DDMS standard will be developed as part of this effort.
Discovery Documents will reside in a Metadata Catalog
CAC cards may be required to access DDMS documents in the Enterprise Metadata Catalog provided by NCES

6. Populating DDMS Documents
Identify the actual data items that serve to define the contents of the DDMS documents.
Map these items as appropriate to data items provided within or described by the DoDAF v2.0 Meta Model documents
Create initial set(s) of DDMS documents manually.
Determine whether subsequent sets can be generated more quickly using automated means.
Submit documents to DoD Metadata Registry

7. DDMS File Design Synopsis
Used XMLSpy to create sample XML file from DDMS 2.0 XSD’s
All Items (mandatory and optional)
Multiple instances of elements
Sample XML files provided with product
Populated sample XML file using
DDMS identified data from Bruce Dunn SV-1
Metadata from DM2 Group

8. DDMS File Template
Created General template and processor– handles common DoDAF view data
Created View Specific template processor for each DoDAF view – handles view specific data
Non DoDAF View documents handled individually.

15. Enterprise Catalog
2.4.3 Enterprise Catalog
The Enterprise Catalog is a virtual catalog of all DoD data assets. It supports the NCDS by enabling searches on DDMS and COI-extension metadata registered in federated metadata registries. It functions as a federated catalog of DoD data assets via a federated search web service – providing the ability to search content metadata throughout the federation. DARS metadata registration and federated discovery services provide the architecture community’s extension to the Enterprise Catalog. It enables searching for architecture content based on DDMS metadata elements.

18. DDMS TechGuide
Q: Where can I look to find instructions on creating a "metacard" and storing it in a Federated Search accessible catalog?
A: See section 4 of the DDMS Home Page entitled "Known Users of the DDMS"
Q: Is it accurate to say that registering schemas in the MDR is not the same as creating/storing a metacard for discovery by the NCES Program's Federated Search capability?
A: Yes! The MDR registers structural metadata (e.g., XML schema) for re-use and distributed management vice enabling users to discover specific content. To advertise available content, DDMS-compliant metacards describing data assets would be created and stored in a content catalog, either an Enterprise Catalog instance provided by NCES or a community-sponsored catalog.

19. DISA CUSTOMER PARTNERSHIP CONFERENCE APRIL 2009
Content Discovery: Enterprise Search: Find What Your Want Here NCES Enterprise Search has combined several search technologies into one search capability for NIPRNET and SIPRNET. This session will give an overview of the architecture and functional capability. The InteLink Google-based Centralized Search, the Federated Search, and the Enterprise Catalog are consolidated through an aggregator and a single web-based user interface to deliver a comprehensive and flexible DoD search tool. This session will explain the status of the capability and the roadmap for enhancement, including a major effort to expose more content to this tool: probably some of your data. This session is targeted for customers who are interested in using  the search capability and want to understand its capability and for customers who have data that should be exposed to the NCES Content Discovery capability, per the February 2009 DoD CIO memorandum ”DoD Enterprise Services Designation – Collaboration, Content Discovery, and Content Delivery.” A developer workshop on exposing content to the enterprise search will be held in another session.

Prepare a set of test DoDAF v2.0 Meta Model and DDMS documents and submit these to the DoD Metadata Registry.
Run test discovery scripts to validate.
Repair as necessary
