OMG’s Common Warehouse Metamodel (CWM) is mature and
stable, with widespread and still-increasing adoption by vendors and
customers for metadata interchange: most widely in the area of relational
database information.
OMG is now in the process of adopting a replacement standard called the Information Management Metamodel (IMM) that broadens the applicability of the standard and its integration with a number of other OMG standards to address many other areas including UML, Ontology Modeling, XML Schemas and Service Oriented Architectures; and the automated transformation and management of development through OMG’s Model Driven Architecture approach.
Another key aim of IMM is to increase take-up and tool support in the data management community. At the time of the DAMA conference the submission will be at initial revision stage and one aim of the presentation is to solicit feedback and involvement.
This presentation will cover the following aspects of IMM:
