====== Project: Models (Model-Driven NFV) ======

This project will address various goals for promoting availability and convergence of information and/or data models related to NFV service/VNF management, as being defined in standards (SDOs) and as developed in open source projects. 

Related wiki pages:
  * **[[models/releaseplan|Project Planning]]**
  * Main work items
    * **[[models/collaboration|collaboration]]** via agile communication with SDOs, other open source projects, and other OPNFV projects
      * e.g. via JIRA, so that OPNFV and SDOs can set goals, share progress on various model-related issues, and provide feedback on implementation/test experience
      * work with various OPNFV projects (e.g. Movie, Parser, Promise, Copper, SFC, etc) to coordinate on models proposed for testing, and to feedback results to the SDOs
    * **[[models/references|references]]** to
      * standard models that can be roadmapped for analysis and verification thru use case testing on the OPNFV platform
      * other source information that will help us align on modeling concepts, e.g. from standards, open source projects, websites, ...
    * **[[models/tools|tools]]** for model analysis, development, deployment, ...
      * leverage/develop tools and processes for comparative analysis of standardized models and defacto models derived from open source documentation or code, and promote actions for key issues arising from the analysis
    * **[[models/testing|testing]]** for usecases, with the goal to include the tests in OPNFV CI/CD thru FuncTest
    * **[[models/events|events]]** focused on tests/demos or in general publicizing work of the project and enhancing collaboration with upstream SDO / open source project members
