The UMM 2.0 example models have been updated to the latest version of the UMM 2.0 standard. Furthermore they have been checked with the new UMM 2.0 validator,which will be released for free public use during the next week.
Two new papers are available in the academic paper section:
The Development Process of the UN/CEFACT Modeling Methodology gives and overview about the UMM 2.0 standard and explains the new features using an example from the waste management domain.
An Add-In for UN/CEFACT´s Modeling Methodology 2.0 introduces the new UMM 2.0 Add-In and explains the features of the UMM 2.0 profile for UML, the UMM Quick-Linker, and the UMM validator.
We are happy to announce the new open source project for UMM 2.0 and the UML modeling tool Enterprise Architect, called UMM 2 Add-In. The project is intended to be open source and licensed under the GNU General Public Licencse v3.
We would like to invite all interested modelers/programmers/users to join the common effort for developing a tool support for UMM 2.0 and the UML modeling tool Enterprise Architect. The project is hosted on Google Code located under http://umm2-addin.googlecode.com/. The project website on Google Code comprises all downloads, an issue tracker (bug tracker), a WiKi (still to be filled), and direct access to the source code via Subversion (SVN). For details regarding the SVN access please follow the instructions on the project website.
Furthermore the first release of the UMM2 Add-In is available for download on the project website. Currently the release contains the UML Profile (MDG file) for import into Enterprise Architect.
As a next release a first version of the UMM 2 validator is scheduled.
Special thanks to Harry Moyer and Thomas Motal for the efforts on creating the MDG and in particular the quick link features.
The new and revised UN/TMG website is online, providing the latest version of the standards developed by UN/TMG and further information about upcoming meetings etc.
A new UMM 2.0 model from the Waste Management Domain is available for download in the example model section.
We are happy to announce, that our book entitled “UN/CEFACT’s Modeling Methodology 1.0 - A Guide to UMM 1.0 and the UMM Add-In” has been accepted for publication. The first issues will be available in about one month.
The second book entitled “UMM cook book” featuring the new UMM 2.0 standard will be released in autumn 2008. Stay tuned!
The UMM team wishes you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Enjoy the Christmas holidays!
A set of Macromedia Flash movies, explaining the steps towards a valid UMM 1.0 model is now available. Many thanks to Jim Wilson from Cidx who narrated the movies!
The next UN/CEFACT TMG face to face meeting will be held at SAP Research Labs in Zurich, Switzerland, from 10.12.2007 until 14.12.2007. At least three members of the UMM development team will be there and continue working on the UMM 2.0 specification.
We are looking forward to fruitful discussions!
folks,
the umm-dev.org website is currently under construction. When being ready, the website will contain relevant stuff concerning UN/CEFACT’s Modeling Methodology (UMM) like papers, specs, comments from stakeholders and implementers, infos about implementations (e.g., http://ummaddin.blogspot.com/), best practices, development news, etc.).
We try to be online in about two weeks (approx. end of October) - so check back regularly.
