Modeling Hybrid Information Environments: The Librarian and the Super Model Kerry Blinco Consultant Macquarie University Project Manager LIDDAS Project

AVCC Modelling  Targeting National Investment  Identify levels of common infrastructure  Minimise duplication of effort  Provide common tools that can be used for service differentiation  Optimise value for money  Systems Planning Environment  Clearly articulated service models  Strong functional and technical models  Flexible, scaleable and sustainable implementations  Strategic Planning Assumptions  Assumes a distributed services environment  Systems must be flexible and based on open systems architectures  Must be integrated with the international initiatives

Modeling principles: Modeling principles:  Develop service models - in context, - modular  Multiple views of architectural and infrastructure models  Mulitplicity of application combinations implementing the models  System models define system boundaries - internal and external  Define standards used across boundaries  Work to develop or enhance standard/ application gaps  Keep an eye on the question marks  Watch the horizon  Keep on refining and extending

Modelling the Hybrid…..  Does Hybrid matter?  Where in the architecture does Hybrid matter? –Managing Complexity  Will changing the Hybrid change the model?  Who else can we work with? –What can we learn –What do we have to offer
