The Common Information Model (CIM) is an open standard that defines how managed elements in an IT environment are represented as a common set of objects and relationships between them. The Distributed Management Task Force maintains the CIM to allow consistent management of these managed elements, independent of their manufacturer or provider.
A sample ER diagram. Database requirements for a CD collection in EXPRESS-G notation.. In 1976, an entity-relationship (ER) graphic notation was introduced by Peter Chen.He stressed that it was a "semantic" modelling technique and independent of any database modelling techniques such as Hierarchical, CODASYL, Relational etc. [2] Since then, languages for information models have continued to ...
Resources, events, agents (REA) is a model of how an accounting system can be re-engineered for the computer age.REA was originally proposed in 1982 by William E. McCarthy as a generalized accounting model, [1] and contained the concepts of resources, events and agents (McCarthy 1982).
FURPS is an acronym representing a model for classifying software quality attributes (functional and non-functional requirements): Functionality - capability (size and generality of feature set), reusability (compatibility, interoperability, portability), security (safety and exploitability)
At this point, the data model is based on RIF, the predecessor of ReqIF. In June 2011, a proposal [8] was created to transform the code into an Eclipse Foundation project. This proposal was adopted in November 2011. A part of the migration to the Eclipse Foundation was the conversion of RIF to the current version of ReqIF 1.0.1.
An importer often is not an entire program by itself, but an extension to another program, implemented as a plug-in. When implemented in this way, the importer reads the data from the file and converts it into the hosting application's native format. [1] For example, the data file for a 3D model may be written from a modeler, such as 3D Studio Max.
KAOS, is a goal-oriented software requirements capturing approach in requirements engineering. It is a specific Goal modeling method; another is i*. It allows for requirements to be calculated from goal diagrams. [1] KAOS stands for Knowledge Acquisition in automated specification [2] or Keep All Objectives Satisfied. [3]
Each schema defines its own target namespace. Schemas in the reference set may import one another by namespace in order to use (or reuse) components they define. In general, domain reference schemas import schemas from the Core. The NIEM reference schema set represents the full set of data components in NIEM.
