Dr. Jon Siegel Vice President, Technology Transfer, OMG Dr. Jon Siegel, OMG's Vice President, Technology Transfer, will present the tutorial "Introduction and Overview of OMG Specifications." OMG specifications support the enterprise at every level – A model built using one of our standards may represent an aspect as abstract as business motivation or as concrete as an entire system’s software, hardware and staff; models of software may be transformed into code or executed directly on systems as large as a continent-spanning telecoms network or as small as a single chip. Our middleware standards include the still-vital CORBA® (for both conventional and real-time systems) and the publish-subscribe Data Distribution Service (DDS™). In this tutorial, we’ll start our survey with business modeling standards including the Business Motivation Metamodel (BMM), Business Process Maturity Model (BPMM), and widely-used Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN™) V2. Then we’ll see how the Meta-Object Facility (MOF™) defines the metamodeling foundation that members have built upon to model software with the Unified Modeling Language (UML®), systems engineering with the Systems Modeling Language (SysML™), data with the Common Warehouse Metamodel (CWM™, soon to become the Information Management Metamodel or IMM™), and the entire software development and support lifecycle with the Model-Driven Architecture (MDA®). Finally we’ll examine how, taking advantage of this broad base, OMG members define model-based specifications enabling interoperability in a wide range of vertical domains including healthcare, finance, C4I, robotics, business process, government, manufacturing, space, and others.
