Subject: UDEF Pilot LIVE Demo in Houston and EIDX Cross Reference Matrix

For those unable to be in Houston this week at the Semantic Interoperability
Conference, you missed a fantastic "LIVE" demonstration yesterday of the
power of the UDEF coupled with Web Services as it was applied to the
disaster management pilot. The live demonstration showed how two simple UDEF
IDs could discover the actual quantity of 9-volt batteries available in
inventory at Home Depot based on postal zone code for the disaster response
scenario described in the pilot that I distributed last Friday.

On November 10th from 10 AM until noon, the federal Data Reference Model
(DRM) Implementation Through Iteration and Testing (ITIT) team will be
meeting at a yet to be decided Lockheed Martin facility to hear about the
UDEF Pilot and to see the demo.

During yesterday's UDEF discussions in Houston, there was strong interest
expressed in the mappings that have already been made across various
standards to the UDEF. The Electronics Industry Data Exchange (EIDX) XREF
team of CompTIA have mapped a typical purchase order in X12, EDIFACT,
RosettaNet, OAGIS and XCBL to each other and to the UDEF. You can fill-in
the requested fields and download the XREF from the following URL --
