As of June 2006 the latest version of UML is 2. 1, MOF is 2. 0 and XMI is 2. 1.

Given the maximum observed frequency ( MOF ) for a mode on each day of the month at a given hour, the MUF is the highest frequency for which an ionospheric communications path is predicted on 50 % of the days of the month.

The Microsoft Operations Framework ( MOF ) is based on ITIL v2.

While ITIL deliberately aims to be platform-agnostic, MOF is designed by Microsoft to provide a common management framework for its products.

The Meta-Object Facility ( MOF ) is an Object Management Group ( OMG ) standard for model-driven engineering.

MOF is designed as a four-layered architecture.

This M3-model is the language used by MOF to build metamodels, called M2-models.

The most prominent example of a Layer 2 MOF model is the UML metamodel, the model that describes the UML itself.

A supporting standard of MOF is XMI, which defines an XML-based exchange format for models on the M3 -, M2 -, or M1-Layer.

MOF allows a strict meta-modeling architecture ; every model element on every layer is strictly in correspondence with a model element of the layer above.

MOF is a Domain Specific Language ( DSL ) used to define metamodels, just as EBNF is a DSL for defining grammars.

MOF is an international standard:

Kermeta is an extension to MOF allowing executable actions to be attached to EMOF meta-models, hence making it possible to also model a DSL operational semantics and readily obtain an interpreter for it.

OMG's MOF is not to be confused with the Managed Object Format ( MOF ) defined by the Distributed Management Task Force ( DMTF ) in section 6 of the Common Information Model ( CIM ) Infrastructure Specification, version 2. 5. 0.

The MDA model is related to multiple standards, including the Unified Modeling Language ( UML ), the Meta-Object Facility ( MOF ), XML Metadata Interchange ( XMI ), Enterprise Distributed Object Computing ( EDOC ), the Software Process Engineering Metamodel ( SPEM ), and the Common Warehouse Metamodel ( CWM ).

One of the characteristics of MDA tools is that they mainly take models ( e. g. MOF models or metamodels ) as input and generate models as output.

The Object Constraint Language is a precise text language that provides constraint and object query expressions on any MOF model or meta-model that cannot otherwise be expressed by diagrammatic notation.

The MOF format is a specific syntax to define CIM class representation in an ASCII file ( e. g. MIB are to SNMP what MOF files are to CIM ).

The Object Management Group ( OMG ) has developed a metamodeling architecture to define the Unified Modeling Language ( UML ), called the Meta-Object Facility ( MOF ).

MOF originated in the Unified Modeling Language ( UML ); the OMG was in need of a metamodeling architecture to define the UML.

* Standardized mappings from the MOF modeling constructs to Java ;

Completed in early 2008, MOF 4. 0 integrates community-generated processes ; governance, risk, and compliance activities ; management reviews, and Microsoft Solutions Framework ( MSF ) best practices.

JMI defines a Java API for manipulating MOF models.

Beyond the M3-model, MOF describes the means to create and manipulate models and metamodels by defining CORBA interfaces that describe those operations.

Because of the similarities between the MOF M3-model and UML structure models, MOF metamodels are usually modeled as UML class diagrams.

MOF organizes IT activities and processes into Service Management Functions ( SMFs ) which provide operational guidance for capabilities within the service management environment.

These together provide the foundation for Model Driven Architecture ( MDA ), and related set of standards, building upon the success of UML and MOF.

Microsoft has mapped MOF to ITIL as part of their documentation of the framework.

The transaction gave MOF Inc a 70 % stake and Cyberview has remained a government-owned company ever since.

* MOF – Meta Object Facility, an OMG language for specifying metamodels.

At that point we reach the `` closed '' historical situation: the situation in which man is no longer free to return to a status quo ante.

And to do this requires first of all the kind of information about people which is provided by the scientists in industrial anthropology and consumer research, who, for example, tell Courtenay that three days is the `` optimum priming period for a closed social circuit to be triggered with a catalytic cue-phrase '' -- which means that an effective propaganda technique is to send an idea into circulation and then three days later reinforce or undermine it.

`` Although it is not the best of which he is capable '', said Shelley as he closed the book, `` it is still poetry of a high order ''.

Then, a group of eggs is deposited in a cavity in the beebread loaf and the egg compartment is closed.

this is really a deficiency in the scalar field, namely, that it is not algebraically closed.

From these results, one sees that the study of linear operators on vector spaces over an algebraically closed field is essentially reduced to the study of nilpotent operators.

Consider a simple, closed, plane curve C which is a real-analytic image of the unit circle, and which is given by Af.

This theorem is similar to the theorem of Kakutani that there exists a circumscribing cube around any closed, bounded convex set in Af.

This circumstance in the patient's case plus the fact that his tactual capacity remained basically in sound working order constitutes its exceptional value for the problem at hand since the evidence presented by the authors is overwhelming that, when the patient closed his eyes, he had absolutely no spatial ( that is, third-dimensional ) awareness whatsoever.

Therefore, if the sense of touch is functioning normally and there is a complete absence of spatial awareness in a psychically-blind person when the eyes are closed and an object is handled, the conclusion seems unavoidable that touch by itself cannot focus and take possession of the third-dimensionality of things and that actual sight or visual representations are necessary.

As `` a matter of fact no such complete solution of the dream has ever been accomplished in any case,, and what is more, every one attempting such solution has found that in most cases there have remained a great many components of the dream the source of which he has been unable to explain nor is the discussion closed on the subject of the mantic or prophetic power of dreams ''.

Everything else is closed away.

occlusion is the dentist's expression for the way teeth fit together when the jaws are closed.

It is not often realized to what degree certain trades are in many communities closed areas of employment, except for a lucky few.
