• CASE Data Interchange Format

  • From EDIF (Electronic Data Interchange Format)

• Standard format for CASE import/export (cf. RTF)

  • Tool A exports model as CDIF
  • Tool B imports CDIF file, saves as own format

• Non-standard standard!

  • Manufacturers write their own ‘CDIF’ format ?others can’t use it

• No metametamodel

  • Need new CDIF spec for each method ?
  • Only a few specs to date, and those are missing parts
