DoDAF CADM/AP233 Project

All Presentation Material Copyright Eurostep Group AB

DoDAF CADM/AP233 Project

• Purpose– Evaluate feasibility of system architecture data

exchange using emerging ISO AP233 Systems Engineering standard

• Not a fully validated design effort

– Provide a body of work that future efforts can build upon

• Deliverables– Documented CADM View-AP233 mapping– Upgrades to AP233 itself to fill gaps found in

mappings– Proof-of-concept AP233-CADM converters for demos

DoDAF Views

Mapping Documentation

• Document as a Web site in the style of a programmers guide– Audience

• Audience is software developers• No previous knowledge of AP233 is required• UML diagrams and XML Schemas used to explain how

to write a converter

– Approach• Develop standalone AP233 document that is

independent of DoDAF/CADM mapping• Develop document for each DoDAF View and “link” into

the AP233 document• Makes the AP233 documentation reusable for a similar

project on SysML, MoDAF, etc.

Conclusion

• DOD DODAF/CADM-AP233 Project finishing this month– See http://www.exff.org/ap233

• Did prove that AP233 can support Architecture Framework tool integration

• Improved AP233 itself by filling gaps identified during the project

• AP233 Committee Draft ballot 1Q2007– All Classes are completed but the Associations between

them are still in work … and there are hundreds

• Link of AP233 with SysML Plug-fest and other testing means are high on list of desires
