Summary of requirement pre-interview, by Reviewer:

The cyclic references in models is not a good practice and is preventing uploading of the XSD representations of the models to caGrid XSD repository (GME). More information is available from attached presentation. A tool or model validation service that enforces the model policies/best practices (e.g. entity naming rules, prevention of cyclic references, association directionalities/naming etc.) for NCI-CBITT locale. This service can be utilized by model/knowledge repository loading tools, a tool like SIW and even code generators.
