A Fool with a Tool is still a Fool once again. Just indicative of a lack of engineering discipline (you don’t need an engineering degree) and the inability to execute team/goal directed learning. Substitute BCM Template for UML and roll the calendar ahead three years and we can revisit this article again. This really gives us an indication of our challenges for the BCM-EPR Subcommittee. Both Templates and UML have a role in Framework development. Templates are a business mechanism and UML is an infrastructure development tool that requires abstraction skills. The test for coexistence will be template reuse.

Attached is a nice piece of glossary/vocabulary work from the FIPA (Foundation for Intelligent Physical Agents) Methodology TC. Often the basics are forgotten and UML has a poor metamodel for ignorance modeling. <Dan/>

Team,

I'd asked ACM Queue magazine to notify me as soon as this thought provoking

article was available online from their March issue.

I'm very pleased to let everyone know this is now available.

Enjoy, DW.
