[news.eclipse.technology.swordfish] Modelling\animation of data for crea

[donald.martin@xxxxxxxx (Don Martin)]

Hi everyone,

My name is Don Martin and I work for a public, non-profit research center. 
We have created a software toolset for the modelling, validation and 
animation of electronic messages and I thought that your group might be 
interested in our work.  In simplest terms, our toolset was designed to 
help business analysts design a model for the exchange of data between 
multiple business partners, animate/validate the data via a work flow 
engine, and then give non-technical business people the ability to 
interact with the model via a web browser.  If you are familiar with jBoss 
jBPM then you can make a (slight) comparison between the two.  Our toolset 
has an open source component and I would very much like to see if there is 
a need for our modelling expertise and/or the toolset (perhaps as a means 
to begin evaluating an SOA architecture?). 

Technical components
UML modelling software (Magic Draw)
CASE plug-in for translation of model to XML/XPDL
Workflow engine to animate model (x-linkit, xml schema checker..)
Web site for interacting with the model(Chiba xForms,SOAP, etc...)

If someone would like to know more or has specific question please feel 
free to contact me.  I will also add this info to the STP and Modelling 
groups if I can.

Thanks,

Don
