5. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 5 THE IEPD LIFECYCLE 5 Review background, assess resource impact, understand business context, and identify information exchange business scenarios Selected information exchange scenario is further elaborated to understand and document the business context and data requirements Create an exchange content model based on information exchange requirements. The Exchange Content Model is then mapped to NIEM. Create a set of exchange-specific NIEM conformant XML schemas that implement the data model created for the exchange Prepare and package all related files for this IEPD into a single self ‐ contained, self-documented, portable archive file Implement the IEPD into production as well as publish the IEPD for search, discovery, and reuse.

6. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 6 6 THE IEPD ARTIFACTS IEPDs contain both required, recommended, and optional artifacts Required: Bold and Blue Optional: Plain Note: Best practices for most organizations include many of the artifacts listed here Business Processes Diagrams Use Case Diagrams Sequence Diagrams Business Rules Business Requirements Exchange Content Model Mapping Document Subset Schema Exchange Schema Wantlist Constraint Schema Extension Schema Reference Schema XML Stylesheets Master Document Catalog Change Log Sample XML Instances No required artifacts. Publish the IEPD to a repository and implement the exchange The following includes the required and recommended artifacts associated with each phase of the IEPD Lifecycle.

7. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 7 SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT LIFE CYCLE The Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a common methodology used for creating information systems The IEPD Lifecycle aligns closely with the phases of the SDLC Plan Requirements Design Develop Implement Maintain Develop high level scope and goals of intended system Analyze goals and break them down into exact requirements Transform requirements into detailed system capabilities Develop system per design specifications Test and deploy system and develop future plan Sustain system per future plan and eventually move to disposition The following includes the phases of the Systems Development Life Cycle as they align with the IEPD Lifecycle.

Describe the benefits of model driven architecture. Find the relevant specifications for conformance with NIEM and the NIEM-UML Profile. 10 MODULE 1 – NIEM UML OVERVIEW This module will introduce you to the NIEM-UML Profile.

11. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 The National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) is a well established U.S. sponsored program and community for standardized information exchange information. The NIEM Program Management Office is organized under the Department of Homeland Security, the sponsor of NIEM-UML. The Object Management Group (OMG) is a leading industry consensus organization specifying many of the popular modeling and middleware standards. The Unified Modeling Language (UML®) is an established standard for modeling from the OMG. NIEM-UML is a profile of UML for modeling NIEM at a logical and XML specific level that is in the final stages of adoption within the OMG. NIEM-UML OVERVIEW

12. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 ​ In September 2013, the Object Management Group (OMG) Board of Directors officially finalized the Unified Modeling Language (UML) Profile for NIEM (or NIEM-UML) as an OMG specification.OMG specification NIEM-UML for Version 2.1 is now available. http://www.omg.org/spec/NIEM-UML/ NIEM-UML for Version 3.0 will be developed after the NIEM 3.0 NDR and MPD Specifications are released. CURRENT STATUS

13. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 Represent the semantics of NIEM while being agnostic of its structural representation To leverage standards and standards based tools To reduce complexity and lower the barrier for entry To facilitate reuse of NIEM models and as a result schemas To embrace accepted UML modeling styles and constructs To enable use of NIEM-PIM models for use with other standards, technologies and layers To support deterministic mapping to and from the NIEM technology layers based on NIEM rules NIEM-UML GOALS Clarity: Ensure that a UML representation of a NIEM model produced by one developer can be interpreted as expected by another. Completeness: Ensure that a developer can produce a UML representation of any NIEM concept, including semantics, XML Schema structure, and metadata. Practicality: With minimal effort, a developer can employ the profile in current UML development tools to develop a NIEM model.

14. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 Models are easier for both business and technical stakeholders to understand. MDA helps reduce the time and cost to develop and maintain information sharing solutions. XML & NIEM Naming, design and packaging rules are automatically applied and validated. Processes, services and information can be part of a coherent system and system of systems architecture across the full life-cycle of solutions. Multiple technologies can be supported using different MDA generation patterns, such as JSON or the Semantic Web. USING MODEL DRIVEN ARCHITECTURE

58. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 NIEM PROPERTIES NIEM Properties Non-reference properties: Properties are represented as properties of UML classes or data types or as ends of associations. Information from the UML property or association end definition includes the name, type and cardinality..

59. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 SUBSETTING A REFERENCE VOCABULARY

60. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 NIEM ASSOCIATIONS NIEM Associations A UML Class stereotyped as an > represents a NIEM association using the rules of complex types. Each end of the NIEM association is represented as an independent UML association (an association line in a class diagram). The end is named on the related object side of the UML association and the cardinality of this relation will be the number of such objects that can participate in each association, this cardinality is usually one.Association

61. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 NIEM & UML ASSOCIATIONS NIEM Associations Alternative: As UML includes a first-class concept of association classes, A NIEM association may also be represented as a UML association class (Line with a class attached by a dotted line), optionally having the > stereotype.Association

62. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 NIEM ROLES NIEM Roles UML also has the capability to represent roles in their simpler form as UML association ends (The names on the ends of lines in a class diagram) or properties. To represent roles that are complex types a class or data type is used.

63. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 REPRESENTATION OF COMPLEX TYPES

64. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 NIEM PROPERTY REUSE NIEM Property Reuse and Subset Schema UML has no notion of properties independent of any class and the normal way to handle this in UML is to define classes, perhaps abstract, that are inherited. To be consistent with UML all properties are defined within a class (or data type). The > stereotype of realization is used to import properties from one class to another (perhaps in another name-space) to provide for the property reuse that is a principle of NIEM. The defining class can be complex type, an abstract type or a >. Property holders are a NIEM-PIM Stereotype specificity to hold properties not owned by a class in the namespace.ReferencesPropertyHolder

ValueRestriction, Union, and List stereotypes may be applied to DataType Restriction stereotype and Realization may relate DataTypes DATATYPE AND RELATED STEREOTYPES ValueRestriction (DataType) ValueRestriction represents the facets of a simple type, which are implemented in XML Schema as the facets property of a simple type definition component. ValueRestriction includes the following attributes: fractionDigits, length, maxExclusive, maxInclusive, maxLength, minExclusive, minInclusive, minLength, pattern, and totalDigits.

78. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 78 Union (DataType) Union represents a union simple type, represented in XML Schema as a simple type definition component for which the variety property is “union”. DATATYPE AND RELATED STEREOTYPES

82. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 NIEM SUBSTITUTION GROUPS NIEM Properties A substitution group is represented by UML property subsetting. A property that subsets another will be substitutable for the base property. All subset properties within a name space are normally grouped together into a single class with the name of the base property combined with the suffix “SubstitutionGroup” (Current implementation is generating “PropertyHolder”). Substitution groups are also declared as a > since the containing class is not consequential, it is simple a holder for the group of substitutable properties.PropertyHolder

83. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 NIEM PRIMITIVE TYPES NIEM Primitive Types Primitive types are represented as a UML >. There is a library of XSD data types included as part of the NIEM-PIM, this package is called “XMLPrimitiveTypes”. Specialized primitive types may subclass this library to enable automatic mapping of the domain types to XML. The NIEM-Core provides a set of these types ready-made. XSD facets may be applied to primitive types to further constrain a representation. The PIM profile includes a set of stereotypes to represent these facets

84. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 NIEM OBJECT TYPES NIEM Object Types An object type is represented as a UML class, no stereotype is required. Alternative: A UML data type may also represent an Object Type.

85. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 A data type for a human being. A date a person was born. A combination of names and/or titles by which a person is known. A unique reference to a living person; assigned by the United States Social Security Administration. YOUR BASIC “THING”

86. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 NIEM CODE LISTS NIEM Code Types Code types are represented as UML enumerations. Each code value is one value of the enumeration.

87. NIEM-UML Profile 2.1 Alternative 1: A UML Data type may also represent an Augmentation Type Alternative 2: Generalizations marked as > will be mapped to a property with a cardinality of 1 to simulate multiple inheritance in the XSD. NIEM AUGMENTATIONS NIEM Augmentations An Augmentation type is represented as a UML class with the > Stereotype. A property typed by an augmentation type may have an > dependency which restricts the class of objects that may contain a property typed by an augmentation (this is sometimes called the properties “domain”). Properties without an > may be properties of any NIEM object.
