The Object Management Group™ (OMG™)

OMG is an international, open membership, not-for-profit computer industry consortium

OMG Task Forces develop enterprise integration standards for a wide range of technologies, including: Analysis & Design, Architecture-Driven Modernization and

Middleware Business Modeling and Integration Real-time, Embedded and Specialized Systems C4I, Finance, Government, Healthcare, Legal Compliance, Life

Sciences Research, Manufacturing Technology, Robotics, Software-Based Communications and Space

OMG’s Modeling Standards

Enable powerful visual design, execution and maintenance of software and other processes, including Systems Modeling and Business Process Management

MDA® is Model Driven Architecture®, a vendor-neutral approach for developing platform independent models that document business functionality and behavior, separate from the technology that implements it

UML® is the Unified Modeling Language® for modeling application structure, behavior, and architecture, business process, and data structure

SysML is the Systems Modeling Language for modeling hardware, software, data, personnel, procedures, and facilities

Systems Engineering Domain Special Interest Group (SE DSIG)

Jointly chartered by OMG and International

Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) in

2001

Focused on standards for system modeling UML for SE: SysML adoption beginning in April ‘06

UML Profile for DoDAF/MODAF (UPDM)

UPDM is: An industry standard UML/SysML specification for the

representation & exchange of DoDAF and MODAF

architecture descriptions

Being standardized by Object Management Group

(OMG)

Available at

http://www.omg.org/cgi-bin/doc?c4i/07-02-01

Motivation for UPDM

Significantly enhance the quality, productivity, and effectiveness associated with architecture and system of systems modeling

Promote architecture model reuse and maintainability

Improve tool interoperability and communications between stakeholders

Reduce training impacts due to different tool implementations and semantics

Develop UML Profile for DoDAF/MODAF that provides industry standard UML/SysML

representation & exchange of DoDAF/MODAF architecture descriptions
