Applying Wave (registered trademark) to Build an Air Force Community of Interest Shared Space
Abstract
This paper describes the application of Modus Operandi's Wave product to the construction of a Community of Interest (COI) shared space. An example of this is the Knowledge Management Framework (KMF) at the 45th Space Wing (45 SW) of the US Air Force Space Command at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station and Patrick Air Force Base. The KMF is a shared space for the Eastern Range community of interest. Wave addresses key elements of a COI shared space, including a registry, catalog, virtual data storage mechanism, and vocabulary deployment within a bounded network space. A shared space can serve as reusable infrastructure for a variety of services and applications that serve the COI. This paper attempts to answer the following questions: * What steps are required to build a COI vocabulary for a shared space? * How can that vocabulary be made operational to support a shared space? * What are the benefits? Throughout this paper, a number of key best practices are identified as part of an overall methodology for the efficient, effective, and repeatable application of Wave to the task of building a COI shared space. The Wave product and supporting methodology have a number of unique facets, but a primary differentiator is this: Wave makes it possible to operationalize a COI vocabulary that is machine-processable and dynamically populated at runtime to serve as a shared space.
