<span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Dear all,</span><span style=" font-size:12pt">
</span><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif"><br>
I've just
uploaded the latest draft of the Service Management Utilization Request
Formats to CWE, This contains the updates discussed at San Antonio and
Den Haag. I've also uploaded the updated UML model and Schemas.. The following
points should be noted;</span>
<br>
<ol>
<li value=1><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">None of
the Annexes are written yet. As this ICS in particular will be a pain for
this I'm planning on leaving that until the rest of the recommendation
is pretty stable.</span>
<li value=2><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">There
are a number of dependencies on structures that will be defined in other
books, viz. ConfigurationProfileContents, EventSeqeunce, and ServicePackage.
I've written some dummy placeholders for them</span>
<li value=3><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">The Trajectory
class is also a place holder at the moment as I need to do a bit more work
on it.</span>
<li value=4><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">There
are a number of items which probably should be moved into the Service Management
Common Data Entities book as they will probably be useful elsewhere in
SM</span>
<li value=5><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">There
is a dependency on the PIF and again it would probably make sense to move
this from the PIF into the Service Management Common Data Entities book</span>
<li value=6><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Included
is a first pass at the time windows concept JP brought up at Den Haag.
I'm not completely happy with this at the moment for the reasons below,
the following figure and diagram show the current definition of the TimeWindows
class;</span>

<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">What I'm not clear
on is the meaning of the "includeWindow" flag. As it stands we
could have in a "time windows set" some time windows that are
"included" and some which are "excluded". In this case
what happens to time ranges that are not included or excluded, i.e.</span>
<br>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">
t1----------------------------t2
t3--------------------t4</span>
<br>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">lets say that
the window t1 -> t2 is included and t3 -> t4 is excluded, what about
the time range from t2 -> t3.</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Would it make
more sense to move the include flag to the TimeWindow class ?, in that
case it would mean that all specified time windows would either be included
(i.e. would represent time that services should be scheduled in) or excluded
(i.e. would represent times that service should not be scheduled in).</span>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">To be discussed.</span>
<br>
<br>
<br><span style=" font-size:10pt;font-family:sans-serif">Also included
in the Schemas is a very simple request example. There is more work needed
on the examples but as I'm not going to have any time to do this before
the next WebEx I thought it was as well to upload things just now.</span>
