Knowledge Discovery Metamodel (KDM)
is the first specification developed by the
Task Force. KDM is a publicly
available specification from the OMG. KDM is a common
intermediate representation for existing software systems
and their operating environments, that defines common
metadata required for deep semantic integration of the
Application Lifecycle Management tools.
KDM Analytics maintains an open Portal
for KDM
(http://www.kdmanalytics.com/kdm).
Software Assurance
The ADM task force is sponsoring the Software
