OMG
Government Domain
Task Force Workshop
Tuesday
& Wednesday, July 14-15,
2009
This is a two-day
workshop focused on two of
the principal areas of
standards activities
involving industry and
government collaboration in
the Government Task
Force.
The objectives of the
Government DTF Workshop are
twofold:
- Inform the government
community of the
activities of the OMG in
collaboration with the
government sector.
- Receive feedback to
guide its activities and
roadmap of planned
activities.
The Workshop will focus
on the two areas of greatest
activity, spending one day
on each.
OMB/OMG
Collaboration Agenda
The President’s Office of
Management and Budget (OMB)
has been working with the
OMG for several years. The
OMB brought the Federal
Transition Framework to the
OMG and successfully defined
an interchange standard
using OMG's Model Driven
Architecture approach. Over
the last year the
collaboration has turned to
the Metamodel for Federal
Segment Architecture (MFSA).
MFSA originally was begun to
support the Federal Segment
Architecture Reporting
Template; however, it became
clear that a larger view is
necessary. There are
overlapping semantics in a
number of areas in the OMB:
Segment Architecture,
Federal Transition
Framework, OMB 300, Exhibit
53, and the Consolidated
Reference Models. These
pieces have been defined
separately and differences
in interpretations and
details have occurred. This
effort is intended to bring
all of these pieces under a
single semantic umbrella
where they overlap.
Electronic
Records Management Services
An Interagency Project Team
of 19 Federal Agencies
facilitated by the National
Archives and Records
Administration (NARA)
published “Functional
Requirements, Attributes,
and Unified Modeling
Language Class Diagrams for
Records, Management
Services, September 7, 2006.”
NARA subsequently took these
requirements to the OMG to
serve as the basis for a
Records Management Services
specification. During the
last week of March 2009, the
OMG approved the Alpha
version of that standard.
This specification will be
brought through Beta to
Formal V1.0 status using
OMG's Community Consensus
Process. However, NARA, the
OMG and other agencies
believe this standard to be
a beginning. It has a road
map of additional
specifications to provide
functionality not addressed
in this initial
specification.
