EDOC — Editorial issue, restructuring of the specification

  • Key: EDOC-51
  • Legacy Issue Number: 5410
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Distributed Models Pty Ltd ( Keith Duddy)
  • Summary:

    I have an editorial issue with the "UML Profile for EDOC"
    specification: It needs some restructuring to make it usable:

    The title is misleading, as the specification contains a number if
    chapters that have UML profiles, and a number that have MOF
    models. Some have both.

    Chapters 2 and 3 of "UML Profile for EDOC" - loosely - "ECA" are
    difficult to read, as they intersperse MOF models with UML profiles
    for each sub-package of ECA. In addition, Section 6 of chapter 3
    is the "Relationships Profile", which is unrelated, and should be
    a separate chapter. Also, Chapter 5 of the EDOC spec contains 2
    separate models.

    Suggested resolution - each chapter (and some sections) become
    contiguous chapters in the OMG modelling specifications with
    appropriate titles.

    "UML Profile for EDOC" specification should become 6 contiguous
    chapters of OMG Modelling specifications:

    • Chapter N "Enterprise Collaboration Architecture Metamodel"
      comprises:
      . EDOC Chapter 2, Section 3 as a preamble
      . EDOC Chapter 3 Sections 1, 2.0-2.3, 2.5, 3.0-3.3, 4.0-4.2,
      4.4-4.6, 5.0-5.2, 5.4-5.6
    • Chapter N+1 "UML Profile for Enterprise Collaboration
      Architecture" comprises:
      . EDOC Chapter 3 Sections 2.4, 3.4, 4.3, 5.3
    • Chapter N+2 "UML Profile for Relationships" comprises:
      . EDOC Chapter 3 Section 6
    • Chapter N+3 "UML Profile for Patterns" == EDOC Chapter 4
    • Chapter N+4 "EJB and Java Metamodels" == EDOC Chapter 5 Section 1
    • Chapter N+5 "Flow Composition Metamodel" == EDOC Chapter 5 Section 2
