Service oriented architecture industry model repository meta-model component with a standard based index

摘要

A method of searching a service oriented architecture industry model repository comprising a meta model service associated with a physical asset repository, the meta model service comprising: at least one topic map meta model with data specific to a particular topic or industry vertical included within an information model repository common meta-meta model, the information model repository common meta-meta model included within a meta-meta-meta model with a topic map based index. The method comprises: a computer receiving entry of a search term for the service oriented architecture industry model repository; the computer searching the service oriented architecture industry model repository for the search term; and displaying results of the searching of the service oriented architecture industry model repository as a topic map comprising data representing meta model service through a graphical interface.
