Structure of a metadata registry
This document specifies the information to be recorded in a metadata registry in the form of a conceptual data model:
- Clause 5 specifies the approach used to model a metadata registry;
- Clause 6 specifies the Core Model of the registry, including basic types and classes to be reused in extending the model. The core model defines a generic "registry item", from which any type of item that needs to registered can be sub-classed;
- Clause 7 specifies the metamodel for Identification of registry items;
- Clause 8 specifies the metamodel for Designation and Definition of registry items;
- Clause 9 specifies the metamodel for Registration of registry items;
- Clause 10 specifies the metamodel for Classification of registry items;
- Clause 11 specifies the metamodel for Mapping among registry items.
Model extensions
Other parts of ISO/IEC 11179 extend the core model to support additional functionality, including the following:
- ISO/IEC 11179-31[17] provides a metamodel for data specification registration, including support for data elements, data element concepts, conceptual domains and value domains;
- ISO/IEC 11179-32[18] provides a metamodel for concept system registration , including support for concept systems and ontologies;
- ISO/IEC 11179-33[19] provides a metamodel for data set registration;
- ISO/IEC 11179-34[20] (under development) provides a metamodel for computable data registration;
- ISO/IEC 11179-35[21] provides a metamodel for model registration.
