On Information and Interoperability

Adam, If binary standards have dried up then why is W3C producing the Efficient XML Interchange http://www.w3.org/XML/EXI/? There is also ISO standard based on ASN.1 (http://asn1.elibel.tm.fr/xml/finf.htm) that also produces a binary encoding of XML. Perhaps there is a need to reduce XML

Adam, Indeed however there are ways of persisting a model they require at the end of the day a recognizable document design/format. I have already noted how using text children of an element to use a value vs a std value attribute in the archetype xml inflates the file sizes. A

AOM MOF mapping

Adam Sam This is very interesting, kind of relates to my recent post MDA/MDD DSL. For my med student brain I want to clarify that I get what Adam suggests. MOF has the idea of 4-layer meta-modelling. In the case of AOM/MOF mapping this would lead to this: m3 (meta-metamodel) - MOF m2
