Requirements Mapping (selected sample)
Test
Procedure
ECITP 2.01
Requirements
CIM 61968-9 v1.0 - The MeterReadSchedule message shall contain a valid subset of
information data items specified in IEC 61968-9 part9: MeterReadSchedule message type.
CIM 61968-9 v1.0 - The MeterReadSchedule message shall be formatted in accordance
with the standard MeterReadings XSD.
SCE Use Case B1 vers. 1.2 050106- REQ0220 - The Meter Data Unification System shall
record the source of all meter data. See
http://www.smartgridipedia.org/images/7/7a/ARCHB1USECASEv12050106.pdf
SCE Use Case B1 vers. 1.2 050106.REQ0071 - Meter Data Unification System shall be able
to remotely manage work load and priority of ad hoc and routine requests for usage data
to provide reasonable system response time.
AMI ENT Requirement REQ-B1004-Send a scheduled meter reading

Issues Recommended Resolution
• Recommended CIM versions to use as baseline
– Enterprise Architect (EA) Universal Model Language (UML) models
• Model Manager responsible for posting official version
• 1 January 2011 version
– XML Schema Definitions (XSDs) use Part-9 and newer as available
– Web Service Definitions (WSDLs) use OpenSG version
• Separate Part 9 UML/XML tests from Part 1 tests
• Using WSDLs to execute tests
• Not validating WSDL format

10
Opportunities arising during the Previous
Week
• XSDs version identification
– Message XSD version is 1.0.0
– Both Part 1 and Part 9 undergoing revisions
– Part 9 payload XSD’s have no version id
– Recommend
• Increment 1.0.0 because fielded systems implemented earlier XSDs
• Add version ID for Part 9 XSDs
• CIM Part 1 and Part 9 loose coupling
– Specification incorporate loose coupling of service patterns and UML/XML
– Recommend
• EPRI CIM tests follow decoupled approach per IEC 61986/61970
• Separate tests for meter Part 1 (web services) and Part 9 (meter reading)
