Objectives Develop smaller, modularized and more easily consumed NIEM dictionaries and create supporting tools particularly for new users; Apply EIEM/BIEC-based solution and preclude the propagation of multiple NIEM models NIEM could create a simpler way to use NIEM when users have simpler requirements BIECs would make it easier to engage the model BIECs could reduce the need for understanding the greater number of elements in the NIEM model; “job aids”

Oracle Draft Materials – Limited Circulation CAM/NIEM Solution ALREADY IMPLEMENTED TODAY Modularized dictionaries Dictionary collections and management Drag & Drop simplicity for exchange development Ability for domains to create EIEMs and BIECs directly UML model export CAM templates provide “job aids” and entry wizards CAM toolkit provides complete IEPD artifact delivery NEW FEATURES NIEM-Lite dictionary for broad government use Support non-DHS/DOJ applications Support international needs and standards alignment

Copyright ©2011, Oracle. All rights reserved. Oracle Draft Materials – Limited Circulation Big Picture What This Enables Easier alignment to NIEM approach Simpler more global NIEM dictionaries Rapid development of domain dictionaries Better interoperability and reuse within domains Management of domain components simplified along with how to align to NIEM specific components Much faster adoption of NIEM and development of new NIEM-based information exchanges More consistent technical results and ability to evaluate NIEM-conformance through automation tools Delivering on the “NIEM-Lite” vision

Oracle Draft Materials – Limited Circulation Key Messages Deliver on the NIEM Strategic Vision for Approach C Dramatically simpler dictionaries and reuse Can be rapidly developed from existing dictionaries Enables use of context driven modelling Context replaces “schema tricks” e.g. substitutionGroups Accessible open source approach Supports international standards work
