Hi,

The project seems as an interesting one and most needed. However Ive
been trying to understand how existing standards come into play.
I work in environments where standards are key and needs to be present.

Could anyone share with me any the plans on how to integrate OMG SysML
and ISO 25000 into the project?


thanks
/anders

Hi Anders,

This is all open at the moment. Have you looked at the newsgroup thread
"The importance of standards"? It discusses current state of affairs.

If you would like to contribute to the project in this area we would
welcome your efforts.

Yes, I have and thats why I wanted to know more.

Unfortunately I disagree with that this area has not been tackled and no
standards exists.

I believe there are already standards out there that are being used.

For Glossaries therere is OMG SBVR , which is also an Eclipse project i
the makings.

For use cases we have OMG UML2, BPMN, OMG BPDM

For requirements there are OMG SysML, OMG QoS, ans ISO 25000 (software
qualities), + other ISO standards

For motivation (why, ends and measn) we have OMG BMM

For the requirements process there is SPEM2, (see Eclipse project EPF)

My recommendation is to build on established standards and innovate from
there. Otherwise the ORMF risks being viewed as a yet another
specialised requirements software built by a few and used by a few.
Which of course I would not like to happen.


thanks

Hi Anders,

I find nothing unfortunate in your disagreement, thanks for your input :-)

I very much agree that ORMf needs to buy into applicable existing
standards. When we moved from offering Useme as an OS use case tool to
ORMF, we bought into a dramatic enlargement of the vision and scope of
the project. Barbara and make no pretence of our ability to deliver
this grander scope on own. It is going to take folks like you and
Toolsmith adding your expertise to make this come to reality. Want to
play?

I am curious as to why you state that SBVR is Glossary. I thought it
limited itself to business rules which are certainly another piece of
the puzzle that we need to take into consideration. Am I missing a
piece of what SBVR embraces.

Your comments lead me to suspect that you are thinking MDA. If so, I
should say that we have not considered OMRF to be an MDA compliant
framework, but that can certainly be discussed. Thanks for bringing it
into the space.

Cheers,
Joel

yes, the standard is a Business Vocabulary and Business Rules
specification covering bodies of shared meaning, terminological
dictionaries, vocabularies, business rules and logical formalizations.
