DODAF CADM/AP233 Interoperability Project

David PriceOSJTF

March 2006

Our Focus is on SE Standards

• Enable communication between SAs/SEs and the tools they use– Approach described in white paper : Using

Systems Engineering Standards In an Architecture Framework

– Influenced by DoD, INCOSE, ISO STEP and OMG communities

•System-of-systems engineering requires •Greater collaboration and tool interoperability, and …•Using robust modeling techniques for describing systems architectures

AP233 Systems Engineering

• On-schedule for AP233 modules to go out for ISO ballot starting in the summer– Committee Draft ballot (July-October 2006)– After ballot completes, workshops are held to address

ballot comments– AP233 modules should be published 1Q2007

• The complete AP233 Application Protocol that includes Business Use Cases, etc. takes a bit longer

AP233 Testing

• AP233 Development Team is working strategy for critical testing– Includes internal team testing– Includes approaching vendors to participate

• AP233 Team developing a “test harness”– Fitting into the “test harness” is now the main

focus for the DODAF CADM/AP233 demo work– Dwayne made significant contribution to the

architecture of this – The bad news though: Previous “cool

CADM/AP233 demos” are broken into bits at the moment

DoDAF CADM/AP233 Project

• Purpose– Evaluate feasibility of system architecture data

exchange using emerging ISO AP233 Systems Engineering standard

• Not a fully validated design effort

– Provide a body of work that future efforts can build upon

Delivered as of March 2006

• Web site documenting AP233 and CADM/AP233 mapping

®

Delivered as of March 2006 (2)

• New additions to AP233 covering– State machines suite– Assigning descriptions to anything– Some gaps filled in Interface schemas

• New API for creating the AP233 XML– Ruby is a language for proof-of-concept

implementation, not designed for production software support

®

CADM/AP233 Testing

• Fitting into the “AP233 test harness” is current focus of my the DODAF CADM/AP233 demo work– Dwayne made a significant contribution to the

architecture of this – Also changing test tools to enabling other AP233

team members to create test data

• So, earlier “cool CADM/AP233 demos” are broken into bits at the moment– Can show a few test harness components today

®

Conclusions

• Confirmed ideas from white paper that AP233 can support DOD DODAF/CADM data interchange requirements– Will complete DODAF CADM/AP233 Gap Analysis

before AP233 ballot ends – Keeping an eye on the OMG SysML, UPDM, etc. to

identify gaps in AP233

• Positive, direct impact on AP233 completeness by this OSJTF project

• DOD in a position for future validation to build on these efforts (e.g. AP233, SysML, UPDM)
