Metamodel Framework
• Model: A set of related objects to represent a concept
• Metamodel: Model which describes other model
• Meta-Metamodel: Model which describes Metamodels

Metamodel Framework
A minimal set of well designed Meta-Metamodels which
describes Metamodels in order to obtain the efficient and
consistent exchanging of both Metamodel and domain
specific models which were described each Metamodels.

Issues for the Project
• MOF/XMI PAS proceeding
• MOF Extensions with OMG MOF2.0 project
• Defining an overall structure of the Framework and
the core.
• Provide bases for Specifying each metamodel
• Linkage to Business Transaction Semantics
• Give incentives to other group to register their
metamodels
SC32 Seoul 020506
12
Standardization Issues for
Core Framework
• Define Meta-metamodel Extending MOF
(collaborative works with OMG MOF2.0 projects )
• Prepare Normative Ontology and Terminology to be
used in defining metamodels
• Prepare Normative Constructs to be used in
defining metamodels
• Define minimum Initial contents for each
Metamodels
• Define Registration Procedures

MOF/XMI PAS Submission
from OMG
•It was discussed at the Helsinki Meeting (Nov. 2001)
that should we invite MOF/XMI to SC32 or not.
•Due to an unexpected accident at OMG, the process
has been not active.
•However, OMG has reinitiated the task and committed
to submit PAS to JTC1 by the end of August.
