The TRM is a component-driven, technical framework used to categorize the standards, specifications, and technologies that support and enable the delivery of service components and capabilities.
The Technical Reference Model (TRM) provides a foundation to categorize the standards, specifications, and technologies to support the construction, delivery, and exchange of business and application components (Service Components) that may be used and leveraged in a Component-Based or Service-Oriented Architecture. The TRM unifies existing Agency TRMs and E-Gov guidance by providing a foundation to advance the re-use of technology and component services from a government-wide perspective.
Service Areas
Service Access and Delivery
Refers to the collection standard and specifications to support external access, exchange, and delivery of Service Components or capabilities. This area also includes the Legislative and Regulator requirements governing the access and usage of the specific Service Component.
MOREService Platform & Infrastructure
The Service Platform and Infrastructure Area defines the collection of platforms, hardware and infrastructure specifications that enable Component-Based Architectures and Service Component re-use.
MOREComponent Framework
The Component Framework Area defines the underlying foundation and technical elements by which Service Components are built, integrated and deployed across Component-Based and Distributed Architectures. The Component Framework consists of the design of application or system software that incorporates interfaces for interacting with other programs and for future flexibility and expandability. This includes, but is not limited to, modules that are designed to interoperate with each other at runtime. Components can be large or small, written by different programmers using different development environments and may be platform independent. Components can be executed on stand-alone machines, a LAN, Intranet or on the Internet.
MOREService Interface & Integration
The Service Interface and Integration Area defines the discovery, interaction and communication technologies joining disparate systems and information providers. Component-based architectures leverage and incorporate Service Interface and Integration specifications to provide interoperability and scalability.
