Agent Registry Conceptual Content Controlled Vocabulary Custom Metadata Data Capture Instrument Data Description Data Management Descriptive Codebook Sampling Statistical Classification Structured Geography	Agents Business Workflow Collections Pattern Conceptual Custom Metadata Data Capture Discovery Enumerations Format Description Geographic Classification Identification Logical Data Description Methodologies Methodology Pattern Primitives Process Pattern Regular Expressions Representations Sampling Methodology Signification Pattern Simple Codebook Simple Methodology Overview Structured Data types Study Related Utility Workflows	Codebook Data capture - simple questionnaire content and flow, non-question based data (register data, simple protocols, internet, etc.) Data description - various formats Data processing Data transformations Archive a study (repository) Simple study description (catalog) Statistical classifications Geographic classifications	The Model: although this is at the heart of the documentation, we would also like to have a processable version of the model in XMI (an XML format for describing models). This will be in canonical XMI, a flavor of that format supported across many UML tools. There will only be an XML file for the entire model being published – there is no sub-set for each View, etc. as for some other deliverables. XML Schemas: Descriptions of both the full class library and subset XML Schemas for each identified Functional View (groupings of objects to support specific functions). RDF-S/OWL Vocabulary for RDF: There will be a vocabulary for the entire library, and a set of Functional View-level vocabularies. These would be expressed using OWL. Documentation: (additional details in this linked document from Dagstuhl sprint) High-level overview document describing the model and how it functions. This will include the definition and description of the views (however they are formed) Class-level descriptions in Drupal that include language about examples Individual document for each use case to include description and method/rationale along with an example in xml: Codebook Simple questionnaire and flow Non-question based data Data description - should we include the various formats in one document or separate them? Data processing/transformation - separate or together? Statistical classification Geographic classification Archived study/study description Mapping to DDI v2.5 Mapping to DDI v3.2 (or v3.3?) Mapping to GSIM v1.1 RDF-S/OWL Vocabulary
