Discover Functional Profile
A key function desired by virtually all stakeholders is the ability to query by example using an item from a model or vocabulary (e.g., data element, property, data type, constraint, relation, concept, etc.) to find equivalent and related elements defined anywhere in the knowledge repository. The response should provide an easily understood description of the degree and nature of the semantic convergence between the example item and responsive items.
From inherited abstract Artifact Functional Profile
An artifact is a managed resource within Discovery has architectural implications on the Semantic Infrastructure: .
An artifact is associated with the following capabilitiesService Descriptions include reference to policies defining conditions of use and optionally contracts representing agreement on policies and other conditions. This requires the following capabilities (as also enumerated under governance):
- descriptions to enable the service modules artifact to be visible, where the description includes a unique identifier for the service artifact and a sufficient, and preferably a machine processible, representation of the meaning of terms used to describe the serviceartifact, its functions, and its effects;
- one or more discovery mechanisms that enable searching for services artifacts that best meet the search criteria specified by the service participant; where the discovery mechanism will have access to the individual service artifact descriptions, possibly through some repository mechanism;
- accessible storage of services artifacts and service artifact descriptions, so service participants can access, examine, and use the services artifacts as defined.
Descriptions include references to metrics which describe the operational characteristics of the subjects being described. This requires the following capabilities (as partially enumerated under governance):

From inherited abstract Discovery Functional Profile
Discovery is the set of capabilities which enable searching for artifacts that best meet the search criteria specified by the service participant.
Aspects of discovery include:
- Search for services, policies, and other artifact descriptions accessible via some repository mechanism
- Search for operational characteristics of artifacts, which are metrics defined in artifact descriptions. The information is accessible via infrastructure monitoring capabilties or directly from services.
- Tracking and notification mechanisms related to artifact usage, service availability, operational conformance
Capabilities associated with discovery are delineated in the functional profiles inherited, and specialized, by the discovery profile, namely:
- Artifact
- Metrics
- Interoperability
From inherited abstract Interoperability Functional Profile
...
Descriptions provide up-to-date information on what a resource is, the conditions for interacting with the resource, and the results of such interactions. As such, the description is the source of vital information in establishing willingness to interact with a resource, reachability to make interaction possible, and compliance with relevant conditions of use. This requires the existence of
Architectural implications of interoperability on the Semantic Infrastructure are reflected in the following capabilities:
- one or more discovery mechanisms that enable searching for described resources that best meet the criteria specified by a service participant, where the discovery mechanism will have access to individual descriptions, possibly through some repository mechanism;
- tools to appropriately track users of the descriptions and notify them when a new version of the description is available.
From inherited abstract Metrics Functional Profile
Artifact Descriptions include references to metrics which describe the operational characteristics of the subjects being described
Architectural implications of metrics on the Semantic Infrastructure are reflected in the following capabilities:
- access to platform infrastructure monitoring and reporting capabilities
- access to metrics information generated or accessible by related services
- mechanisms to catalog and enable discovery of which metrics are available for a described artifact and information on how these metrics can be accessed;
- mechanisms to catalog and enable discovery of compliance records associated with policies, contracts, and constraints that are based on these metrics.
