Scope
This International Standard supports the Meta-Object Facility (MOF) Core defined in ISO/IEC 19508. MOF is the foundation technology for describing metamodels. It covers a wide range of domains and is based on a constrained subset of UML. XML Metadata Interchange (XM I) is a widely used XML interchange format. It defines the following aspects involved in describing objects in XML:
The representation of objects in terms of XML elements and attributes.
The standard mechanisms to link objects within the same file or across files.
* The validation of XMI documents using XML Schemas.
Object identity, which allows objects to be referenced from other objects in terms of IDs and UUIDs.
: XMI describes solutions to the above issues by specifying EBNF production rules to create XML documents and Schemas that share objects consistently.
