1. Introduction
This document is a part of the IMS GLC Membership Management Service (MMS) v2.0 specification. The binding details how the Membership Management Service Information Model is realised as a Web Service; in the form of a Web Services Description Language (WSDL) file. The MMS binding is contained in a set of WSDL, XSD and vocabulary files. The vocabulary files are instances of the IMS Vocabulary Definition Exchange specification [VDEX, 04a], [VDEX, 04b]. The IMS GLC Learning Information Services (LIS) Best Practice and Implementation Guide [LIS, 11b] provides non-normative guidance on how to use the Binding and Information Model. For a conceptual overview of the LIS Specification, please see the overall services description [LIS, 11a]. For a discussion of potential applications, see the Best Practice Guide.
1.1 Scope and Context
The IMS GLC MMS WSDL Binding v2.0 is used in conjunction with the following documents:
- IMS GLC Membership Management Service Information Model v2.0 [MMS, 11] – the behaviour and data model definition of the Membership Management Service;
- IMS GLC Learning Information Services Best Practice and Implementation Guide v1.0 [LIS, 11b] – key information on how to adopt and implement the specification.
As such the Membership Management Services specification supersedes the original Enterprise Services specifications:
- IMS GLC Membership Management Services Information Model Final Specification v1.0 [MMS, 04a];
- IMS GLC Membership Management Services WSDL Binding Final Specification v1.0 [MMS, 04b].
This WSDL binding takes the Membership Management Service Information Model and produces an encoding of that description in WSDL. This WSDL binding is generated as recommended by the IMS GLC General Web Services documents [GWS, 06a], [GWS, 06b]. The WSDL is created using the IMC GLC Binding Auto-generation Tool-kit (I-BAT) [I-BAT, 06].
1.2 Structure of this Document
The structure of this document is:
2. Platform Specific Model of the Binding |
The description platform specific models in the form of the IMS GLC UML-Profile service/data models representation of the IMS GLC GMS specification information model. This representation is used by the IMS GLC I-BAT tool to auto-generate the corresponding WSDL/XSDs; |
3. Application of the Binding Guidelines |
Explanation of how the platform specific model is realised as the WSDL/XSD binding. This addresses how the information model is realised as a Web Service; |
4. WSDL File Documentation |
The description of the Web Services used to realise the service model components of the binding. This part of the binding document was created using the schema documentation tool provided as part of the Oxygen 12.2 product; |
5. XSD File Documentation |
The description of the elements used within the data model components of the binding. This part of the binding document was created using the schema documentation tool provided as part of the Oxygen 12.2 product; |
6. Vocabulary Binding Using VDEX Instances |
Contains the description of how the set of external vocabulary files realised as VDEX files; |

2. Platform Specific Model of the Binding
2.1 Service Description
Figure 2.1 is the PSM of the service group model description for the MMS. This information is used to establish the mapping to the binding flavors of WSDL.

Figure 2.1 The PSM representation of the service group model description for the GMS.
Figure 2.2 is the PSM of the service model description for the MMS. The PSM is derived from the Platform Independent Model that was documented within the information model for the MMS specification [MMS, 11].

Figure 2.2 The PSM representation of the service model description for the MMS.
2.2 Data for the Service Operations
The data model for the service operations is shown in Figure 2.3 and 2.4. Figure 2.3 shows the data models for the set of parameters. Figure 2.4 is the data model for the Status Information and other WSDL-specific binding data structures.

3. Application of the Binding Guidelines
The WSDL/XSD bindings have been generated using the methodology documented in [GWS 06a] and [GWS, 06b]. Only the synchronous service binding has been created. The binding files are available in two forms:
- A single combined WSDL/XSD – MembershipManagementServiceSyncSingle.wsdl;
- Separated WSDL and XSD files – MembershipManagementServiceSyncWSDL.wsdl and MembershipManagementServiceSyncXSD.xsd respectively.
It is recommended that only the combined form is used (many WSDL-based code generation tools do not process the 'import' instructions).
The mapping between the PIM and PSM descriptions is detailed in Table 3.1.

WSDLv1.1 File Information
Services: MembershipManagementService (Synchronous Communications)
Author: Colin Smythe
Date: 30 June 2011
Version: 1.0

Description: The Membership Management Service. This forms a part of the IMS Learning Information Services v2.0 specification.
History: Version 2.0: This is the first formal release of this service. This supercedes the MMSv1.0 which was produced as part of the Enterprise Services v1.0 specification.
WSDL Binding: WSDL Binding is based upon the IMS GLC General Web Services Base Profile v1.0 The IMS GLC GWS Basic Profile is derived from the WS-I Basic Profile v1.1. This profile uses: WSDL 1.1, SOAP 1.1, HTTP 1.1 and XML 1.0. Extension profiles to the IMS GLC GWS Base Profile are available but are not supported using this tool version.

5. XSD File Documentation
The XSD file documentation has been produced by the Oxygen XML Editing tool.

Click on the Section header to access this documentation for the data models for the exchange of Group objects in an external file.
6. Binding of the Vocabularies
The vocabularies in the MMS are:
- Roletype vocabulary – the set of roles that are permitted for the Membership of a Person in a Group. The PSM for this vocabulary is shown in Figure 6.1;
- Subroletype vocabulary – the set of sub-roles that are permitted for the Membership of a Person in a Group. The PSM for this vocabulary is shown in Figures 6.2, 6.3 and 6.4;
- Extension data-type vocabulary – the set of data-types that are permitted for extensions in the Membership data model. The PSM for this vocabulary is shown in Figure 6.5.
These vocabularies are the default set maintained under the IMS GLC Vocabulary Registry [SDN11, 06]. It is the responsibility of an implementation to ensure that it is using the correct and latest versions of the vocabulary files. Changes to the default vocabularies are permitted; this results in the creation of a new vocabulary that should be registered with IMS GLC. As part of a profiling process entirely new vocabularies may be defined to replace the default set.

Figure 6.1 The PSM representation of the roletype vocabulary for the MMS.

Figure 6.2 The PSM representation of the subroletype vocabulary for the role teaching assistant and officer for the MMS.

Figure 6.3 The PSM representation of the subroletype vocabulary for the role administrator for the MMS.

Figure 6.4 The PSM representation of the subroletype vocabulary for the role mentor for the MMS.

Figure 6.5 The PSM representation of the extension data-type vocabulary for the MMS.
Appendix A - Listing of the WSDLs
The WSDL bindings are for a Synchronous SOAP implementation only. The WSDL files, expressed using WSDLv1.1, are:
These files were generated by the I-BATv0.9.5 tool using the PSM representation described in Section 2.
Appendix B - Listing of the XSDs
The XSD files are:
This file was generated by the I-BATv0.9.5 tool using the PSM representation described in Section 2. Documentation of the XSDs is supplied in Section 5.
Appendix C - Vocabulary VDEX Instance File Listings
The MMS vocabularies are:
These vocabularies are expressed as instances of the IMS GLC Vocabulary Data Exchange (VDEX) v1.0 specification. Documentation of these vocabularies is supplied in Section 6.
Appendix D - Example SOAP Messages
The set of examples for the SOAP messages are listed in Table D.1. The messaging pattern is a Request/Response exchange to support the Synchronous Service definition.
