The purpose of this document is to collect, analyze, and define high-level needs and features of the NCI CBIIT MDR Data Warehouse iteration 3 of the 1.0 release. This document focuses on the functionality proposed by the product stakeholders and target users in order to make it a better product. The use-case and supplementary specifications document will detail how the framework will fulfill these needs.
Vision and Needs
The objective of this release is to take the prototype warehouse schema that was created during iteration 1 and iteration 2 of this 1.0 release and utilize it as back end database in a production environment for a new browser within the caDSR suite. The new browser will provide a flattened view of caDSR content to users in the general public who do not understand ISO 11179. To support the open systems initiative at NCI CBIIT, the MySQL version of the MDR Data Warehouse will be utilized in lieu of the Oracle version. Since the MDR Data Warehouse schema and ETL scripts have been created during the first two iterations, it is expected that only minor tweaks to the warehouse will be need to support the new caDSR flattened view browser.
In addition to the changes to support the new caDSR flattened view browser, work will be done to specify the requirements and design for the MDR Warehouse to support the following four views:
1) A domain model (11179) view for all Administered Items
2) A Data Element View (flattened view)
3) A UML Browser view
4) A Forms View
Finally, as part of this iteration, an API will be provided that will enable users and applications to search the MDR Data Warehouse. It's expected that this API would resemble a caCORE SDK generated system.
Functional Requirements
Each enhancement, modification or new feature is described in detail below.
GForge number | Brief description of functional requirement | Iteration |
|---|---|---|
— | Create a design and implement changes to the MDR Data Warehouse schema necessary to support the new caDSR flattened view browser if any. | — |
— | Create a design for and implement an API that will allow remote and local users and applications to query the the MDR Data Warehouse. he design should utilize caCORE components that are available i.e. caCORE SDK if possible. | — |

Non-Functional Requirements
This section describes in detail all the related requirements which must be met for this release but do not add functionality. These requirements are included in the scope and project plan due to level of effort or relative importance to the overall success of delivery of the release.
GForge number (hyperlinked) | Brief description of non-functional requirement | Iteration |
|---|---|---|
— | Create a design that details any changes that would need to be made to the MDR Data Warehouse to support a domain model (11179) view for all Administered Items | --- |
— | Create a design that details any changes that would need to be made to the MDR Data Warehouse to support a Data Element view (flattened view) | --- |
— | Create a design that details any changes that would need to be made to the MDR Data Warehouse to support a UML Browser view | --- |
— | Create a design that details any changes that would need to be made to the MDR Data Warehouse to support a Forms view | --- |
— | Specify the process that the systems team will need to follow to periodically run the ETL scripts to populate the MDR Data Warehouse schema with the latest data in the caDSR transactional system. The deliverable for this requirement is a document providing step by step instructions that the systems team can follow. | --- |
— | Define a process that would make the contents and the schema of the MDR Data Warehouse available for download for adopters. How often the data for the download is updated will be decided by MDR product management. | --- |
