Model-Based Data Engineering: Preparing a Paradigm Shift towards Self-Organizing Information Exchange

Summer Computer Simulation Conference 2007 (SCSC 2007)

Abstract

Current standards for interoperability and composability focus on mandating a common information exchange data model. The Levels of Conceptual Interoperability Model (LCIM) shows that this is not sufficient. A second chal-lenge is that the mapping between system-internal repre-sentations to the information exchange data model are left to system developers leading to misinterpretations and am-biguous information exchange. Model-based Data Engi-neering (MBDE) replaces this with an engineering process. Both ideas together motivate the hypothesis that self-organizing information exchange is possible if the system interfaces and behaviors are captured in machine-understandable meta-information.
