This paper describes an approach that was developed for the formalization of activities related to use cases in the context of Requirements Elicitation efforts of the NCI Vocabularies and Common Data Elements (VCDE) Workspace.
The aim of this approach is to augment current requirements elicitation and use case analysis with concepts from the Open Distributed Processing -- – Reference Model (RM-ODP) \ [2\], \ [3\], contextualized with UML semantics and notation. The approach leverages the use of modelling tools such as Sparx Enterprise Architect with an RM-ODP plug-in. Wiki Markup
A further aim is to consider recent SAIF developments and to strengthen the use of RM-ODP standards in the software development lifecycle, thus holistically promoting interoperability approaches as per SAIF objectives.

Section 3 - Use Case Formalization describes a levelling leveling approach for structuring use cases as well as the use of UML notation to support delivery of artifacts for downstream software development activities. This is illustrated through examples based on use cases developed to address the ISO 21090 datatype support requirement.
