It looks like Mike Rawlins and Lisa Shreve have written a paper on this. The only red flag that I got from their white paper was that I perceived some business rules being supplied in the message. I hope this is a misperception. Business rules are protected processes in most corporate environments. Having a slot for them in a "process" is critical but that should have more to do with Business Process Modelling rather than Data Modelling. The two, Data and Process modelling, should run in paralell. The two processes also have very little to do with each other. http://www.idealliance.org/papers/xml02/dx_xml02/papers/04-05-01/04-05-01.pdf
Interesting concept though. John "Hurd, Richard [SLCUS]" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I started to Google around for CICA. There's a lot out there and I hadn't heard about it before I read it in your post... after only a couple of introductory papers, I have to say that this is turning into a real mindful. I think it'll require a lot of thought before I can give a useful answer. Thanks for the pointer. > -----Original Message----- > From: William J.
