The Technical Architectural Framework for Information Management (TAFIM) reference model was developed by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) to guide the evolution of Department of Defense (DoD) systems, including sustaining base, strategic, and tactical systems, as well as interfaces to weapon systems. Application of the TAFIM reference model is required on most DoD systems [Paige 93]. TAFIM is a set of services, standards, design components, and configurations that are used in design, implementation, and enhancement of information management system architectures. The intent is that the DoD infrastructure will have a common architecture that will, over time, be a fully flexible and interoperable enterprise. Details on the TAFIM model are available in a seven volume TAFIM document, but are primarily in Volume 3 [TAFIM 94].
