This is the entry point to the OOI CI System Architecture specification. Please follow the specific thematic pages for details. The pages in their entirety comprise the OOI CI System Architecture, which is structured according to the DoDAF framework. Note: The architecture documented here subsumes and supersedes the FDR IOA and IOI architecture documents.
