A Practical Approach to Data Modeling using CCO

In this paper, we present work in progress on using the Information Domain ontologies of CCO (Common Core Ontologies) as a domain model for land combat. Our goal is to use the domain model as a common semantics for multiple land combat logical models. In the paper, we show how our domain model can be mapped to different logical models in a manner that is less labor intensive than the approach commonly used by users of CCO. We demonstrate our approach by describing how our domain model, which is a domain ontology of CCO, is mapped to logical models created in Ecore and NIEM (National Information Exchange Model).
