Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types of document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives or www.iec.ch/members_experts/refdocs ).

ISO and IEC draw attention to the possibility that the implementation of this document may involve the use of (a) patent(s). ISO and IEC take no position concerning the evidence, validity or applicability of any claimed patent rights in respect thereof. As of the date of publication of this document, ISO and IEC had not received notice of (a) patent(s) which may be required to implement this document. However, implementers are cautioned that this may not represent the latest information, which may be obtained from the patent database available at www.iso.org/patents and https://patents.iec.ch . ISO and IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

This document was prepared by Joint Technical Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, Information technology, Subcommittee SC 32, Data management and interchange.

This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO/IEC 19763-10:2014), which has been technically revised.

The main changes are as follows.

• The Core Model has been revised to extend the facilities provided by ISO/IEC 11179-3 Information technology — Metadata registries (MDR) — Part 3: Metamodel for registry common facilities (part of the fourth edition of ISO/IEC 11179) to allow models to be registered in a metadata registry. The previous edition of ISO/IEC 11179-3 has been modularized and technically revised.
• The Basic Mapping facility has been removed as an extended mapping facility is provided by ISO/IEC 11179-3:2023, Clause 11.

A list of all parts in the ISO/IEC 19763 series can be found on the ISO and IEC websites.

Introduction

Industrial consortia have engaged in the standardization of domain-specific business objects including business process models and software components using common modelling facilities and interchange facilities such as UML ¹ and XML. They are very active in standardizing domain-specific business process models and standard modelling constructs such as data elements, entity profiles and value domains.

However, to promote interoperability across business domains, a generic framework for registering a variety of models and the mapping between them is required. This document provides a core metamodel as the basis for the other parts of the ISO/IEC 19763 series. The primary purpose of the multipart standard ISO/IEC 19763 is to specify a metamodel framework for interoperability.

The model registries specified in this document and the other parts of the ISO/IEC 19763 series utilise the common facilities specified in ISO/IEC 11179-3. The ISO/IEC 11179 series of standards specify a Metadata Registry (MDR). These common facilities provide the ability to identify and register models and their associated model elements and modelling languages within a metadata registry used to register models.

Figure 1 shows the relationship between this document and the other parts of the ISO/IEC 19763 series.

To maintain compatibility with the ISO/IEC 11179 series, this document uses bold font to highlight metamodel constructs in Clauses 6 and 8, both for those constructs specified in this document and for those constructs specified in ISO/IEC 11179-3.

1 Scope

This document specifies the metamodel that provides a facility to register administrative information and common semantics of models.

This document does not specify the metamodel of models in a specific language, but provides a common core metamodel for the other parts of the ISO/IEC 19763 series, each of which specifies a metamodel for a registry that can register models of a specific type, such as ontologies, process models or information models, in a number of different languages.
