Intelligent Data Sets Accelerating Deployment of ISO15926

Realizing Open Information Interoperability


ISO15926 COMPLIANCE

Sub-Project Leader : Ian Glendinning (US Central Time Zone)

Executive Summary

ISO-15926 is the standard for lifecycle integration and interoperability, based on highly generic information modeling principles, and with a high dependency on shared reference data. Whilst it supports many valid and flexible implementation possibilities, these may not support the full lifecycle capabilities intended by the standard. And, being highly generic and flexible, achieving comprehensive and consistent interpretation in different implementations is non-trivial.

Compliance Categories arranged as stepping stones expose that complexity in stages, and in doing so open up distinct work-fronts enabling more, different, business-domain expertise to contribute more consistent interpretation at each step. The industry and individual organizations are thus enabled and encouraged to achieve full lifecycle integration benefits in a series of pragmatic steps each with immediate business value, but with minimum overall effort and risk.

As ISO15926 approaches completion, and the resources involved mature and grow in number, it has become necessary to bring into one document a definition of what ISO15926 Compliance involves. This compliance specification is intended to form the basis for testing and certification of compliance by systems claiming ISO15926 compliance at interoperability interfaces.

Compliance Specification Progress & Status

After consideration amongst the IDS-ADI core steering team, using this Trac Wiki to gather ideas, a draft proposal was the subject of an IDS-ADI workshop in New Orleans (April 3, 2008), and the version 0.3 of the Compliance Specification was subject to further review at the IDS-ADI software vendor workshop in Houston (April 28/29, 2008).

The latest published version of the Compliance Specification is "v0.3"

The latest draft update version is "v1.0 Draft" incorporating comments to date.
