  • The IC board has, after careful consideration and deliberation over the past year, determined that the best course of action for the IC is to shut down as a 501(c)(6) and allow the community to be open and virtual.

    Effective December 31, 2009 we will be phasing out the formal 501(c)(6) organization and associated infrastructure. This will include access to the current IC members only website and IC White-paper Library.

  • Cory Casanave wrote: At the technical committee meeting last week in Long Beach California, the Object Management Group issued a request for proposals to provide better connectivity between models and modeling languages defined in OMG and RDF Linked Open Data.

    The RFP issued last week will result in a standard for representing all MOF based models and modeling languages using RDF and Linked Open Data. This has multiple advantages: All OMG-MOF based models (UML, BPMN, SOA, UPDM, Etc) will be able to be published as Linked Open Data and thus take advantage of the LOD tools and community. This will allow architectural information to be linked, queried with and analyzed with other kinds of information on the web and will also allow architectures to be linked and queried with architectures in incompatible models. Architectures as data will become first-class citizens in the global data cloud.
