The Managed Object Format Specification Parser of the MODERES Java Toolkit
Abstract
MODERES Java is an environment for the development of management information models. This environment aims at providing a set of tools for the manipulation of information models coming from different management frameworks. These tools include parsers, mapping and back-end facilities as well as navigation features within specifications. This report presents one component of the environment, i.e. the MOF (Managed Object Format) syntax parser. MOF is the notation defined within the WBEM (Web-Based Enterprise Management) framework as part of the Common Information Model (CIM). This report contains a detailed description of the model as well as a complete implementation and usage guide for the syntax parser implemented within the MODERES environment.
