1. Object Management Group Presentation Unified Architecture Framework and Methodology Key Component to Interoperability 13 November 2014 Walt Okon Professor, Information Technology Science, Technology, and Business Division Northern Virginia Community College-NOVA Alexandria Campus, Virginia wokon@nvcc.edu walt.okon@verizon.net Phone: 703-644-6257 Cell: 571-488-5173

2. Through Constructive Collaboration DoD Architecture Framework will Deliver Interoperability for Shared Systems and Services Premise

3. The US Government has not defined or mandated a Architecture Framework and Methodology to achieve Interoperability for Shared Systems and Services Problem Statement

4. Chief Engineers, Chief Architects, and systems designers and developers agree an Architecture Framework is essential to achieving integration and interoperability across systems and services for the US Government. A single Architecture Framework will enable designers and developers to build in integration and interoperability. DoD Architecture Framework (DoDAF) is the widely used engineering centric framework and it is being used through the world in centers of excellence. Four other architecture frameworks are on the market causing confusion, frustration, and increased cost expenditures. Today's Environment

23. What is Information Interoperability? The ability to transfer and use information in a uniform and efficient manner across multiple organizations and information technology systems Australian Information Interoperability Framework (2006) In other words It’s the ability of two or more systems or components to exchange information and to use the information that has been exchanged

24. PM-ISE mission established in EO1356, EO1388 details the strengthening for information sharing. PM-ISE initiatives are reinforce on standards, interoperability, and architecture etc… DODAF have been huge undertaking but or not directive within whole of government, the need for a unified architecture approach would go far in solving interoperability. Federal Enterprise Architecture Common Approach, lots of goodness, links some DODAF artifacts, but not Directive/Policy FEAF – Policy is in the Agency Requirements to Deliver Transition Roadmaps each April. Supportive, but does not achieve the goals of A119 Under the OMG process the UPDM is a normative specification for modeling DODAF - Supports A119 “use of consensus based standards” I2F provides definitions, and guidance for implementation, but is not Policy Collaboration Agreements

25. I2F supports Architecture Framework Interoperability via the Architecture Grid Alignment tools, and builds common practices for Interoperable Architecture Design Need practical next steps to achieve Framework Interoperability? Architecture Frameworks alone do not achieve interoperability Federal Workgroup maybe the best approach to achieve Framework Interoperability Standards Coordination Council has ownership of the I2F to operationalize whitespace and other activities, but are not on hook to improve architecture efforts or other nascent thoughts here Collaboration Agreements

26. Develop a Constructive Collaboration Team to deliver Unified Architecture Framework and Methodology mandated by US Government Policy will result in Interoperability for Shared Systems and Services Solution Direction

27. Current Engagements: ACT-IAC P&A SIG Constructive Collaboration

28. 1. A member of the Constructive Collaboration Team to deliver Unified Architecture Framework and Methodology. 2. Develop a ACT-IAC position paper that would endorse a need for a US Government Policy using Unified Architecture Framework and Methodology to enable Interoperability for Shared Systems and Services. 3.
