MANAGED RESOURCE
A relation object (e.g. "
to")
resource.
MANAGEMENT
A process family and
sequence that include
acquisition,
storage, computation, transformation,
Modeling,
access control, as well as resources and
knowledge sharing.
MASTER
One of the 10 main
resourceaccess types,
determining resource instantiation
capabilities
that combine
life-cyclecontrol and
assignmentbehaviors (e.g. full).
MEDIA
Streams and files of text, sound, music, images, animation, video, or interaction. See also
Multimedia and
New Media.
MEANING
The semantic value.
MEMBERSHIP
Group belonging
process,
that is all about rights and privileges, providing
access to
resources,
services,
subscriptions, and
registration MESSAGE
A communication payload notification, between
resources.
Typically available in SOA,
eMail, XML, batch, HTTP, JMS, RMI, JINI, and other standard
communications, they are often requests or responses for/to
service
invocations.
METADATA
A resourcearchetype
used to describe resource structure and constraint specifications
(e.g. qualities, rules, bindings),
or information about information, for other resources.
As resources, DNAOS
metadata can be defined, modified, extended, accessed, assigned, entitled, and shared at run-time.
METAMODEL
A metamodel is a recursive
schemaresourcearchetype
describing a set of metadatarules that define
model
constraints and a what is a valid (e.g. conforming) model.
Conceptually, metamodel is a synonym for schema.
METAPHOR
Useful user interface
tools, metaphors, like the computer 'desktop', application 'windows' and 'mouse' pointing
are common and fairly well understood UI metaphors; their use and usefulness increase as sophistication increases;
they are indispensable in interactive 3D
knowledge sharing environments and network
applications.
METERING
Information and knowledge access and usage metering
services combine
accounting and
work-flow services,
to provide real-time measurement and costing for consumed
resources in
sessions;
invoicing and
tracking
services, for example, can then use this information.
MODEL
Models are Resources
considered through representation
viewing
(e.g. views).
"viewing" is not restricted to static visuals as it can also be animated and/or multimedia.
See also: Modeling,
Viewpoints,
Perspectives,
Projections,
Processes, and
Systems.
MODELING
Defining, representing, shaping, and
projectingResources like
Business,
Processes, and
Applications.
Modeling makes extensive use of
viewpoints and
perspectives to project
models onto
views.
MODIFY
One of the 10 main
resourceaccess types,
determining resource modification
capabilities
that include
consulting,
as well as state (e.g. quality) modification (e.g. write)
behaviors.
MONITOR
See Monitoring.
MONITORING
Monitoring applications provide remote measurement, monitoring, and management of
electrical and electronic equipment, as well as system, and process information.
Monitoring applications are also typically coupled with
control applications so that
processes can be both monitored and controlled, typically doubling the required number of
acquisition/monitoring/control
channels and data streams. Information monitoring in
distributed environments introduces serious
content and information sharing
security considerations.
MULTIMEDIA
Streams and files of any combination of
media.
See also New Media.
MVC
A common modeling pattern where
models are typically transformed or projected onto
views, by a
controllerprocess.
