MFI-1 2nd Edition

• Illustrate the over view on multiple parts standard and their relationship

• Provide a guideline for development of standards to keep consistency among different parts in the MFI family of standards

• Provide introductory basic idea for better understanding MFI family of standards for users.

2

Scope

• The metamodel framework for Interoperability(MFI) family of standards consists of standardized metamodels which are to be used in the registering model, ontology, services and role & goals to facilitate the interoperation among existing systems or registries.

Change history of MFI

• Originally, it started with the “Collection of Registry Metamodel ”

• Define of common metamodel for various types of modeling facilities

(ontology, process, service, data models)• Collection of Metamodels for Registering

Purpose of MFI standards

• Promote “Information Interoperability ”– Information Sharing– System Interoperability– Service Interoperability– Registry Interoperability

Proof

It should be official, reliable and sustainable.

Regulation & Standards

Registry:official or formal record of information, or the place where such records are kept.

Registration in MFI• Standardize of Administrative Information of target models

(owner, registration date, )• Essence of the target model and its components to be

recorded into model information• The structure of the model information were standardized

as metamodels• Model information keep the location of target model then

target model instances were not stored in the MFI registries. • Assume that target models were stored in the repository

outside of MFI registries.

Registry Interoperation

Registry Summary

• A small artifact that describes own registry itself.

• It is attached to the registry as a header information by meta tag

• A collection of those information formulates a ROR (Registry of Registres)

Modeling Concept

Modeling Concept

• Concept to be applied in a modeling efforts to capture a UOD( Universe of Discourse )– Entity and Relationship (E/R, IDEF1X,)– Object and Relationship (UML, )– Object and Binary Relationship (NIAM)– Etc.
