“Registered_Item” for MFI Registration (Recommendation)

2. Notion It is needed to make those clear;
What shall be registered into MFI registries ?
How metamodel of each MFI part does work for discovering ?
How much of the semantic of the original models to be represented in the registered models ?

3. Approaches Three approaches on metamodel have investigated
Translate original model into common model following MFI metamodel
Register the original metamodel and use URI
Each MFI metamodel shows the common model at that domain (process, ontology, service,.. ) , and use URI

4. Registration requirements
“Registered_item” should be prepared at each MFI part
MFI-n
Metamodel
Admin-Item
Registered-Item
MFI
Registry
metamodel
Domain model to be registered
Common model

5. Approach-1 (case of MFI-5)
BPMN Metamodel
Model A
Model A
Registry
Admin-Item
BPMN
Process Model
MFI-5
Metamodel
Translate P O
BPMN Metamodel I
UML
Process Model
Registration-Item

6. Approach-2 (case of MFI-5)
BPMN Metamodel
Model A
Model A
Registry
Admin-Item
BPMN
Process Model
MFI-5

BPMN Meta model
URI
UML Metamodel
Process Model
By UML
Set of Metamodel

7. Approach-3 (case of MFI-5)
BPMN Metamodel
Registration-Item
Model A
Model A
Registry
Admin-Item
BPMN
Process Model
Instance
MFI-5
Metamodel
URI P O
UML
Metamodel I
MFI Common Model
Instance for A
Process Model
By UML

8. Issues MFI-5 metamodel : Join or Union ? BPMN UML OWL-S PSL Union:
Enumeration of
Constructs
Join : Common model

9. Recommendation
All parts of MFI should follow
the Approach-3.

10. Approach-3 (case of MFI-5)
BPMN Metamodel
Registration-Item
Model A

11. Then,……

12. Common registration protocol should be available for all parts of MFI
