Model Repository Browser should allow comparison of different complete model and/or selected classes from models. Knowledge Repository Browser (MDR) should provide ability to compare various semantic metadata such as data elements, object classes, value domains, concepts. Value Domains, Model Components (e.g. classes). CDE centric comparison functionality already available in CDE Browser. |
Recommended Next Step Enter one: Follow-up interview, Observe, Use Case Template (text), Use Case Model (formalized/UML diagram), Group Discussion, Prototype, Waiting Room |

1 |
Hello, my name is NAME. I am calling you today because NCI and caBIG are working toward a new and improved version of the semantic infrastructure to better support integration scenarios. |
If yes, proceed. If no, note a good time to call back. |
2 |
Do you have any solution integration needs? If so, what are they? Have you envisioned new ways of interacting with existing or new parts of the semantic infrastructure? |
Knowledge Repository Browser and Model Browser. They should be tightly integrated so that one can switch between different views (model/knowledge) easily. |
3 |
Are there any business changes you are assuming we will be able to deal with? |
Notes on anticipated business changes |
4 |
Are there any capabilities you are expecting to be available to support your needs? |
Notes that identify capabilities, tools, and/or services expected |
5 |
Do you use any of the existing software/services? If so, what do you like or dislike about it? |
CDE Browser, UML Model Browser |
6 |
If this requirement in met, what would be the benefits? If you do not have it, what would be the negative impact? |
This improve reusability of metadata and negative impact is poor if not none reusability and redundant metadata. |
7 |
If, for any reason, we were not able to create that solution, do you think there might be another way to solve this issue? Can you think of an alternative solution? |
Alternative solution is not straight forward, laborious and costly for developer time. For example they need to copy/print and manually transform metadata to model. Or comparison they will either search extensively (long time) or simply create redundancy. |
8 |
Would you agree that we can summarize your requirement like this? |
Requirement statement accepted by interviewee |

|
11 |
Are there other requirements that you would like to share with us? I'd be more than happy to call you back another time, or if you have another 10 minutes, please share other issues you can think of. |

For specific service enhancement or requirement from Forum entry: |
|
13 |
Can you or someone else give me a step-by-step description of how you would describe the expected performance/behavior of the software in order for you to feel that your requirement is met? |
