The models that are to be mapped include: Entity-relationship diagrams for working IT systems, Reference models (no underlying IT systems) both internal to the FCA and with external stakeholder organizations Models of interfaces with services Models of dataset definitions The tool should be able to deal with large scale models. The smallest model to be mapped is expected be a dataset definition composed of a single object with circa 50 attributes. The largest model to be mapped is expected to be composed of circa 500 entities where each entity could have up to around 650 attributes. Similarly, the tool should be able to scale in terms of the number of models it can handle.
