meta data; metadata

documenting characteristic of a data concept that is provided in a message
NOTE 1 to entry: Documenting characteristics are termed “meta-attributes” when stored in a DD, but are termed metadata when provided within the same message instance as the actual value. For example, a data element may

documenting characteristic of a data concept that is provided in a message
NOTE 1 to entry: Documenting characteristics are termed “meta-attributes” when stored in a DD, but are termed metadata when provided within the same message instance as the actual value. For example, a data element may
be defined within the DD with a specific unit of measure, such as meters; the Unit of Measure field is a defined meta-attribute. Alternatively, the unit of measure may be defined at runtime within a message, especially for items such as unit of currency. The field within a message that defines the unit of currency for an included value
would be termed “metadata”.

model

representation of an entity from which the important elements have been abstracted by removing unimportant detail while at the same time retaining the interrelationship between the key elements of the whole

representation of an entity from which the important elements have been abstracted by removing unimportant detail while at the same time retaining the interrelationship between the key elements of the whole
NOTE 1 to entry: A model may be made more or less abstract by the successive suppression of detail such that the concepts and relationships come into enhanced focus and become more readily understood. However the process can be taken too far when the simplification has exceeded the threshold where a necessary understanding may be achieved. Thus the process of modelling is one of going only far enough to achieve the optimum understanding and insight — and no further.
NOTE 2 to entry: A model is a way of representing something, other than in its natural state.

model driven architecture (MDA)

method of writing specifications and developing applications, based on a platform-independent model (PIM)
NOTE: A complete MDA specification consists of a definitive platform-independent base UML model, plus one or more platform-specific models (PSM) and interface definition sets, each describing how the base model is implemented on a different middleware platform.

namespace

NOTE 1 to entry: Namespace is a mechanism to resolve naming conflicts between elements in an XML document when each comes from a different vocabulary.

set of unique identifiers
NOTE 1 to entry: Namespace is a mechanism to resolve naming conflicts between elements in an XML document when each comes from a different vocabulary. It allows the commingling of like tag names from different namespaces. A namespace identifies an XML vocabulary defined within a URN. An attribute on an element, attribute, or entity reference associates a short name with the URN that defines the namespace; that short name is then used as a prefix to the element, attribute, or entity reference name to uniquely identify the namespace.
Namespace references have scope. All child nodes beneath the node that specifies the namespace inherit that namespace. This allows nonqualified names to use the default namespace.
