Hi, (1) Here is a new version of the document (Word file). I didn't receive many comments, so there were only minor changes on the contents compared to the version I posted last week. Notice that we will try to sort out the resource model vs information model vs data model nomenclature problem (and perhaps other ones) on the teleconference on Friday. I'm posting the document before we have a conclusion so that you can print it and read it on the plane. (2) I'm including the model proposal that Andrea created (already posted to the mailing list during GGF14) for your convenience. I re-created the PDF file to put everything in two sheets (watch out the paper size when you print it). I also created a text file with the description of the classes, properties and methods in this model, so you can see what they mean. I created this file by copying-and-pasting from the CIM MOF (Manageable Object Format) files, so apologies for the syntax. Remember that the model proposal "flattens" the CIM classes (which I did in the text file also), erases deprecated stuff (idem), and erases stuff out of scope wrt JSDL, containers and activities (which I also erased from the text file, but not exhaustively). (3) Here is an updated list of pointers on related specs. - JSIM: the spec (GFD-I.028) is at: https://forge.gridforum.org/projects/ggf-editor/document/GFD.28/en/1 There is also a UML diagram: https://forge.gridforum.org/projects/ogsa-wg/document/JSIM_PDF/en/1 - CIM: the schemas are under: http://www.dmtf.org/standards/cim JSIM classes are in 2.10 experimental (awaiting implementation experience to become final). You can find a tutorial (HTML and PDF) at: http://www.wbemsolutions.com/tutorials/CIM/ - JSDL: http://www.ggf.org/Public_Comment_Docs/Documents/July-2005/draft-ggf-jsdl-sp ec-021.pdf There's a nice introduction at: https://forge.gridforum.org/projects/jsdl-wg/document/JSDL-Introduction/en/ - GLUE 1.1: the schemas are in http://infnforge.cnaf.infn.it/glueinfomodel/ There's a good presentation on GLUE 1.1: http://www.dma.unina.it/~murli/SummerSchool/presentations/InformationModelin g-GLUE.ppt - GLUE 1.2: http://infnforge.cnaf.infn.it/glueinfomodel/ The latest draft can be found under: http://infnforge.cnaf.infn.it/glueinfomodel/uploads/Spec/GLUEInfoModel_1_2_d raft_8.pdf There is a very good presentation at: http://infnforge.cnaf.infn.it/cdsagenda//askArchive.php?base=agenda&categ=a0 56&id=a056s0t1/transparencies Regards, Fred Maciel
