[infod-wg] Property vocabularies: Naming and references

[Stephen Davey]

Hi Dieter,

Your point about how do you reference instances of property vocabularies
is very similar to what I found with my use case when I wanted to refer
to Property Vocabularies. I guess this is something that can be
discussed at the F2F next week. I also thought of a few other issues
that could perhaps be discussed at the F2F:

 

1.	Do we need to mention Lifetime Management for INFOD entities and
vocabs? E.g. WS-Lifetime.
2.	Is there a default vocabulary for INFOD entities themselves?
E.g. If you wanted to query all the entities that were of type
"Subscription" or "Publisher" say.
3.	The plan for the Consume message format is to use the WS-Notify
format I believe? But in WSN it uses Topics so will these be related to
the INFOD vocabs somehow?

 

Do we have a draft agenda for the F2F or will that be the first task on
the Tuesday?

 

Cheers, Stephen.

Subject: [infod-wg] Property vocabularies: Naming and references

 

While working on GetMetaData, I came across the following issues:

*	We need a naming convention for vocabularies - the vocabularies
and fields within vocabularies? We should reserve certain names for
INFOD; e.g.; everything starting with wsinfod is reserved, software
vendors can use any name, which starts with/includes $ vendor
name/$vendor stock symbol - tor extensibility; everything else is open.
This mimics the JMS model. Is there a convention in OGSA - this is a
question especially to Susan?
*	We should be able to reference (instances of) property
vocabularies (0 to n). Here is an example: let us assume there is a
vocabulary for individual car dealers and one for car dealers in each
state or region. Obviously, one would like to reference the region
vocabulary from the individual dealer. While we could leave this as an
exercise of the user, I would prefer to add the reference.
