DoD/MOD position statement regarding UPDM
Model Driven Architecture® (MDA®)
An approach to software development that focuses effort on the development of models rather than detailed, platform-specific code which can be generated (with automated assistance) when needed.
Meta Object Facility (MOF™)
OMG’s core standard for the definition and management of models: it is the basis of all the other modeling standards including UML and CWM.
XML Metadata Interchange (XMI®)
OMG’s core XML-based standard for the interchange of models.
Common Warehouse Metamodel (CWM™)
CWM, in addition to data warehousing, addresses all aspects of the design and management of information resources.
Unified Modeling Language™ (UML™)
UML is the very widely used standard for modeling of all aspects of systems - from process down to object interactions.
Enterprise Distributed Object Computing (EDOC)
Adaptive ITPM™ ships with support for the Collaborating Component Architecture (CCA) chapter of EDOC 1.0.
Business Process Definition Metamodel (BPDM)
This Request For Proposals promises to do for process modeling what UML did for system modeling: provide a single core representation of process models which can be mapped down to execution languages (e.g. BPEL4WS) and can represent different process notations (e.g. BPMN).
