  1. FEA DRM Success Strategy Michael C. DacontaMetadata Program ManagerFebruary 3, 2005

  2. DHS Metadata Program Manager DHS Data Management Strategy Expose and Exchange Standardize and Govern Integrate and Federate Technical Lead of the DRM Working Group In conjunction with the FEA PMO and CIO Council See Karen Evans memo to CIO Council dated 12/22/2004 DHS Data Standards Representative for: EO 13356 and HSPD 5, 6, 11 Author See latest article on Formal Taxonomies at XML.com Speaker Introduction

  3. Agenda • The Big Picture … • Scope • Measures of Success • Implementation Plan • Schedule/Milestones • How you can Help!

  4. Copernican Shift We had it all wrong… In the beginning… Data Apps Apps Apps Apps Put the “smarts” in the data… watch what happens…

  5. Scope (1): Where we are today… • Volume 1 is released. • http://www.feapmo.gov • Agency comments have been collected • Send your comments to susan.turnbull@gsa.gov • We plan on posting comments (without attribution) to a public site • DRM Working Group planning is underway • Broad participation including State and Local • Address Business and Technical Issues • Foster broad adoption and implementation • Satisfy the Presidential Orders/Directives

  6. Scope (2) : EO 13356 Strengthening the Sharing of Terrorism Information to Protect Americans • Section 1. Policy: “Agencies shall … give the highest priority to … interchange of terrorism information among between agencies and appropriate authorities of States and local governments [while protecting] the freedom … of Americans….” • Section 3. Preparing Terrorism Information for Maximum Distribution within Intelligence Community. IC Agencies shall set forth “standards for sharing of terrorism information by agencies within the Intelligence Community with [through DHS] appropriate authorities of State and local governments.” • Section 4. Requirements for Collection of Terrorism Information Inside the United States. Attorney General, Secretary for Homeland Security, and the DCI shall jointly submit their “recommendation on the establishment of executive branch-wide collection and sharing requirements, procedures, and guidelines for terrorism information to be collected within the United States, including, but not limited to, from publicly available sources, including nongovernmental databases. • Section 5. Establishment of the Information Systems Council. “The mission of the Council is to plan for and oversee the establishment of an interoperable terrorism information sharing environment to facilitate automated sharing of terrorism information among appropriate agencies….”

  7. What are we trying to accomplish? Revise DRM Volume 1 Respond to all comments Add a glossary Make Volume 1: Complete, Consistent and Cohesive. See DRM for Information Sharing Brief Complete the DRM Volumes 2, 3 and 4 Correct Volume Strategy? Enable Implementation of the DRM Implementation Profiles Foster Broad Government and Vendor Adoption Scope (3)

  8. Two years after completion of the DRM, how will we decide if it is successful? Enables Tangible Business Outcomes EO 13356 and HSPD-11 are successfully implemented. Shared spaces are more than portals Number of interagency exchanges has increased dramatically Taxonomies will be tailored to specific, narrow user communities. Core registry is operational and effective in promoting reuse Leaders can ask “Enterprise Questions” and get accurate cross-domain, cross-agency answers How else will it improve Discovery, Integration, Relevance and Reuse? See XML 2004 keynote slides Real-time Relevance? Please share with us your Measures of Success and Performance Metrics Measures of Success

  9. Working Group Structure Working Group Collaboration Transparency Broaden the Scope Volume Strategy Implementation Strategy Metrics and Feedback Loop Implementation Plan (1)

  10. Three tiers Public participation Virtual “Wiki” Quarterly F2F Forums Team participation Stakeholders, Team Leads/Editors Bi-Weekly Meetings Business Sponsor Group Executive Committee Dispute Resolution Weekly Meetings Plan: Working Group Structure Exec Teams Public

  11. Wiki Team Site and Public Site The “writable” web File Upload/Download List-servs drm-public drm-team drm-business drm-mgt Registry (or Registries) Core.gov Send us your registry requirements! Plan: Working Group Collaboration

  12. Principle: the group will operate in an open manner modeled after successful practices of other groups. Example, open resolution of all comments on DRM Volume 1. Comments will be given an identifier and posted on public wiki (without attribution). Tiered structured is for logistics management and stakeholder responsibility; not for closed discussion on technical issues. This group will learn as it goes and be willing to adjust course upon the introduction and agreement on better ideas. Initial Focus: DRM Volume 1.1 Plan: Transparency

  13. Plan: Revised DRM Structure Context Service Context Security Context Subject Context Subject Area Security Class Service Class Subject Class Input/Output Association Association Association Who When What Why Where Sharing Information Exchange Information Access Exchange Class Unique Identifiers Exchange Payload Query Class Association Association Description Data Element Description Resource Description Structured Data Class Semi-Structured Resource Class Data Property Unstructured Association Association

  14. Objective: Broaden participation by State and Local governments and create Performance Measures for the DRM around the Homeland Security mission. Horizontal Information Sharing Vertical Information Sharing Address Business Issues and Technical Issues DHS Information Sharing and Collaboration Program (ISCP) will lead a DRM Business Sponsors Group in conjunction with the OMB and other Stakeholders. drm-business listserv State and Local Participation through multiple avenues Susan Turnbull coordinating. Plan: Broad Scope

  15. Change the volume strategy from the current plan by creating cohesive volumes around functional lines. Context Exchange (possibly broadened to Information Sharing) Description Data Governance Sections in each of the above on Security & Privacy Given broad virtual participation and active Stakeholder involvement, execute the volumes in parallel Too ambitious? Let’s try and see what happens… Plan: Volume Strategy

  16. Objective: Enable Consistent Implementation of the DRM Implementation Profiles As-Is (RDBMS, Messaging, Portal Taxonomy, etc.) XML Profile (Led by XML COP) Semantic Technologies Profile (led by SiCOP) Implementation Workshops and Pilots Leverage Emerging Technology Workshops Capture Implementation artifacts in a Core Metadata Registry Several registry options… Possibly Core.gov (if it satisfies the group’s requirements) Build capacity of agencies to manage data Work with universities Vendor participation and support of DRM (i.e. “DRM-Ready” products) Plan: Implementation Strategy

  17. Plan: XML Profile of the DRM Context Service Context Security Context Subject Context XML Topic Map & OWL Lite Web Service Entry (UDDI) IC Information Security Marking XLINK Who When What Why Where Sharing Information Exchange Information Access Federated Query & RSS “Message” XMLSchemas XLINK Description Data Element Description Resource Description Structured DOD Discovery Medata Spec Semi-Structured Core XML Schema Types Unstructured XLINK

  18. Principle: “What is Measured, Improves.” Separate part of site and group dedicated to quantifiable metrics. Some suggestions: # of organizations implementing the DRM Measure: Formal Data Management programs # of products that are “DRM-Ready” # of artifacts in a Core Registry # of cross-domain exchanges Caution: Outcomes versus Actions Business group will also develop metrics for concrete outcomes Plan: Metrics and Feedback Loop

  19. Plan: Applying the DRM (non-normative) Core Context COI Context Exchange packages Data Elems Data Elems Registry Org 2 Org 1 Context Sharing Description

  20. NOTES: NOTE1: Schedule is for Initial Suggestion ONLY – this WILL change after vetting/discussion in initial team meetings. NOTE2: Progress will be transparent. NOTE3: YOU can influence (read “speed up”) the schedule 4/2005 – Selection of Volume Leads and Multiple Editors. Start the nominations NOW! (Volume Leads – Government only, Volume Editors – Government or Contractor). “It’s all about Expertise” 8/2005 -- DRM Volume 1.1 (Volume Lead: Michael Daconta, Editors: Michael Daconta & ??? & ???) 2/2006 -- Initial Drafts Volume 2,3,4 8/2006 – Initial Drafts Implementation Profiles 2/2007 – Volumes 2,3,4 Complete 8/2007 – Implementation Profiles Complete Strawman: Schedule/Milestones

  21. All: Get in your DRM Comments! Stakeholders – participate on a team! Note: only 1 “working” representative per organization. Stakeholders MUST have “skin in the game.” i.e. willing to work and willing to implement. Vendors – participate virtually (or as part of the team if sponsored by a stakeholder).
