Objectives of RGPS

RGPS provides a framework for the management ,discovery and sharing of service-related models. RGPS consists of several views of services, which can be

used to capture user’s requirement. According to the mapping between user’s requirement and

the RGPS registration information, appropriate models/services can be selected to satisfy user’s intention.

Semantic annotations will be used to express the relationship between service-related models and domain ontologies.

Relationship with RM-ODP

What is ODP

RGPS will not cover all the aspects of information systems

RGPS focuses on the management and sharing of domain models.

It aims to promote the interoperation between systems.

Things to try

Register the models which confirm to ODP specifications in RGPS registry

Reuse the models which have been registered in RPGS registry in the ODP modeling process
