  • @Daniel Alvarez-Coello OOO from Dec 23, 2025 until Jan 17, 2026 , next session possible for me Jan 22, 2026

About content:

  • @Daniel Alvarez-Coello can continue to hold these meetings but lacks content from participants

  • Possible next steps

    • Next milestone: What sub domains will be officially maintained by COVESA in VDM?

      • VSS is the main source so far

      • Others are still missing!

    • Implementation of example systems in the physical layers and how to better handle identifiers, evolution of models, and implications. e.g., in the interest of MongoDB@Rami Pinto Prieto

Update on VSS to VDM mapping.

@Stephen Lawrence

  • Sharing examples of using VDM in the playground?

  • Example: common “speed“ across multiple variation of entities:

interface Vehicle { id: ID! speed: Float } type PassengerCar implements Vehicle { id: ID! speed: Float # here comes extra specialised fields… model: String } type Truck implements Vehicle { id: ID! speed: Float # here comes extra specialised fields… trailer: Trailer }
  • This type of structure is not obtained directly from VSS because VSS (today) does not model that!
