Introduction• Why Service Definitions?

– Best Practice CIM implementation– “The CIM is neat but…”

• IEC CIM alignment• The service definition process (high level view)• Future Plans

SDO – User Group Relationship• Iterative process• Analogy – early browser

development

OpenSG OpenAMIENT example• First pass – IEC CIM draft XSD as informative• Now – XSD as normative

SDO

User Community

Thou shalt...

Yes and...

Feedback

IEC CIM Alignment• Consistent –some features of the

spec, and in accordance, but also some additional features

• Compliant – some of spec not implemented, but what is implemented is in accordance

• Conformant – All features of spec implemented, but some additional features that are not conformant

• Fully Conformant – full correspondence between the spec and implementation.

System Requirements Specification

For more info: http://osgug.ucaiug.org/sgsystems/SDTeam/Implementation%20Projects/Home.aspx

The Process• Logical model input & development• Identification of integration requirements• Pattern naming• Information objects• Artifact generation (XSD, WSDL)• Posting• Issue generation and resolution

Logical Model Development• Standardized actors

from AMI-ENT SRS• Document business

process in use cases and activity diagrams

Identify Integration Requirements• Where an object

crosses a system boundary

Harmonize Integration Requirements• Compare integration requirements and look for

commonality:– Common actors– Common consumers– Common providers– Common information objects

• Eliminate duplicates, refine integration requirements

Patterns – Using CIM Verbs• Pattern naming allows

for both ESB and non-ESB (point-to-point) architectural assumptions

• Verbs and Information objects are based IEC 61968

• Verb examples: – Create, Created– Send, Reply

• Information Object examples:– EndDeviceAsset– MeterSystemEvent– MeterReading

<IEC Verb><Information Object> e.g. CreatedMeterReading

Sequence Diagrams• Show the services and integration with actors

Crafting Message Payloads• Based on

requirements identified in the Systems Requirements Specification
