trak metamodel

We have hosted the application trak metamodel in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about trak metamodel:

The definition of the metamodel for TRAK (defines allowed AD elements and relationships i.e. tuples/ triples for the TRAK viewpoints and views). TRAK is a general systems-thinkers'/system engineering enterprise architecture framework. It is simple, user-friendly, pragmatic and not limited to IT. 100% triple-centric and semantically-sound. Forms basis for RDF + OWL ontology description - see https: //trakmetamodel.sourceforge.io/vocab/TRAK_metamodel.html. Each TRAK metamodel element now has its own web page - see https: //trakmetamodel.sourceforge.io/metamodel/index.html.

Features:

• defines tuples / triples (declarative statements) that appear in TRAK viewpoints and views
• metamodel triples designed to address architecture viewpoint concerns (and architecture view subject) - https: //trakviewpoints.sourceforge.io/modelling_trak.html
• designed by systems engineers for others & based on need / typical application
• supports simple, pragmatic, no nonsense, just "good enough" way of addressing typical concerns (not populating a data model)
• metamodel (A3) for easy reference when modelling - see snapshot below for example - https: //sourceforge.net/projects/trak/files/TRAK-on-a-page.pdf/download
• defines each TRAK triple (node-connector-node) / statement / assertion in architecture description)
• defines attributes/properties of each element type e.g. Dublin Core, security descriptors, safety-related - https: //trakmetamodel.sourceforge.io/metamodel/metamodel_contents_list.html#properties
• provides tests for/against to determine what type to use when modelling using TRAK
• defines colours/ presentation for each element
• defines tuple set rules (combinations of paths)
• provides rationale/justification for relationships
• released under GNU Free Documentation License
• written for users/architects/human beings - not specifiers or tool vendors
• Overall rules/process at https: //trak.sourceforge.io
• designed to be used with TRAK Viewpoints document (https: //trakviewpoints.sf.net) - also on Sourceforge
• defines central (RDF + OWL) ontology description to enable TRAK architecture description as a knowledge graph (https: //trakmetamodel.sourceforge.io/vocab/TRAK_metamodel.html)
• defines semantic sources / vocabulary basis for each element, property & value (semantics)
• defines initial baseline against MODAF 1.2

Audience: Aerospace, Government, Science/Research, End Users/Desktop, Engineering.
