Join us Tuesday, December 1st at 11 AM ET for the third webinar in our nine-part Toward the Future of AI-Enabled DDE series, “Conceptual Data Model.” Once an organization has established a foundational ontology, the next challenge is applying that foundation to the unique data, relationships, constraints, and integration requirements of a specific system.
Join Dr. Sarah Rudder, PE, CSEP, Principal Systems Engineer at Enola Technologies and Lifecycle Modeling Organization Board Member, as she explores the role of the Conceptual Data Model (CDM) in transforming a foundational ontology into a system-specific meta-model. She will discuss how a CDM can provide an architectural blueprint for data development, map engineering models and repositories to a common structure, and help ensure lifecycle data contributes to a coherent and governed representation of the system.
Key Takeaways:
● What a Conceptual Data Model is and how it relates to a foundational ontology
● How a CDM captures system-specific entities, relationships, attributes, and constraints
● How Conceptual Data Models help map engineering tools, models, and repositories to a common structure
● How a CDM can identify data exchange and interoperability requirements
● How a shared data structure supports governance and continuity throughout the lifecycle
