The purpose of this document is to collect, analyze, and define high-level needs and features of the National Cancer Institute Center for Biomedical Informatics and Information Technology (NCI CBIIT) caCORE caDSR Semantic Integration Tools Release 4.0.0.2. This document focuses on the functionalities proposed by the product stakeholders and target users in order to make it a better product. The use-case and supplementary specifications document will detail how the framework will fulfill these needs.
Vision and Needs
The objective of this release of the SIW and UML Model Loader is to support complex (e.g.ISO 21090) datatypes and to fix high priority bugs.
Functional Requirements
Each enhancement, modification or new feature is described in detail below.

SIW, UML Loader |
Provide support for complex datatypes (ISO 21090, HL7, COPPA). Both the Semantic Integration Workbench (GF17106) and the UML Model Loader (GF17107) will be enhanced. This will require allowing users to enter a datatype that is another registered caDSR class. |
Approved |
526 |
SIW |
Enhance the Semantic Connector to query existing caDSR elements in addition to EVS. This may include inserting the partially matching components, such as the DEC, when the Class and Attribute match, but the datatype does not, or inserting the concepts or components that match at the Class (Object Class) and Attribute (Property) level. |
Future |
|
|
Allow users to match to a Backbone model in which they only difference between their model and the backbone for a given attribute is the constraints/enumerations on the value domain. |
Future |
14489 |
UML Loader |
Allow all primary Value Domain Administered Item attributes to be specified via tagged values |
