- Add a column for which sub-project this is associated with
- Add a column for the namespace identifier of each of these where appropriate
Term | Definition |
---|---|
application programming interface (API) | A set of routines, including functions, methods, and procedures, that exposes application functionality to support integration and extend applications. |
Data Broker | This is the component where all the web services that share data register themselves |
Client API & web UI | COSMOS components used to access or visualize data from multiple MDRs or Data Managers |
Context | TBD |
Data Adapter | Is a product-specific component that is implemented by each product to share its data |
Data Collection Runtime | TBD |
Data Manager | Is a component that hosts one or more Data Adapters, and handles communication with the COSMOS environment |
Domain model | The root of an SML-IF document. Contains a set of definition and instance documents SML Spec |
Definition Documents | The subset of documents in a model that describes the schemas and rules that govern the structure and content of the model’s documents. The SML-IF specification defines two kinds of definition documents - XML Schema documents that conform to SML’s profile of XML Schema, and rule documents that conform to SML’s profile of Schematron. SML Spec |
Instance Documents | The subset of documents in a model that describe the structure and content of the modeled entities. SML Spec |
Management Annotation | TBD |
Management Domain | Is a COSMOS component used to bootstrap the COSMOS system |
Management Interfaces | TBD |
Metadata Registry | A repository that contains access and configuration information about the structure of data that enables a program to process information. |
Query API | TBD |
Resource domain | A set of definition and/or template documents that can be used to build define a domain |
Resource Model editor | An editor that can create domain model instances, based on a set of predefined templates |
SML-IF | SML-Interchange Format. This is a way to aggregate and share SML definitions and instances, identifying the aggregation and defining document aliases and rule bindings. See also the SML Spec |
SML-IF instance validation | The process of validating the content of an SML-IF resource, including SML instance documents contained by the SML-IF resource, applying any Schematron rules defined as a definition document and bound to SML instances. See also the SML Spec |
SML Repository APIs | A set of APIs used to retrieve SML documents from a repository implementation. COSMOS provides a file-system based repository. |
SML validation | The action of validating SML documents. The SML specification extends both the XML Schema 1.0 and Schematron specifications. |
Template document | An SML instance defining a common pattern that can be re-used and adapted in different domain models |
Template editor | An editor that can create definition and template documents |
