A general objects network management platform based on MOF

The author brings forward a general object network management platform based on MOF (meta object facility) in the paper. The platform is based on MOF model gave out by OMG, and adopts the modeling idea of model driver and MOF meta-meta model (namely the model of the meta model). In addition, the model driver idea is applied in the software development process; software development is based on a high layer model abstract. Those objects which need to be managed are abstracted layer by layer and make an independent model in different layer. So, software development process is switched into objects modeling process, and the model structure of whole network management platform is built up step by step. The object modeling is not affected by realization technology and platform. It could realize the upgrade and expansion of network management software quickly, solve the problems of flexibility, diversity and changeability that is currently met by network management software, rapidly adapt the demands of network continuously expansion and operation enlarge, improve the reuse ability of models.
