GeneralThe ultimate goal of Spectrum management is to provide military access to the electromagneticspectrum to meet training and operational requirements.

10 A key aspect of achieving this goal is tohave a data repository and standardized exchange procedures capable of supporting all aspects ofthese business processes, interactions, and state diagrams are expressed using the Unified ModelingLanguage (UML) notation, version A short introduction to this notation is presented at AnnexC. The formal definition of UML is maintained by the Object Management Group (OMG) at < >. PurposeStandard Spectrum Resource Format (SSRF) is a Format for exchanging data related to spectrummanagement within the Department of Defense (DOD).
