The OMM XG's workplan and preliminary results are documented in the Wiki.
A Final Report summarizes the findings of the Object Memory Modeling Incubator Group. An XML-based object memory format is introduced, which seeks to support:
Within the report, the group makes several recommendations concerning the future evolution of the object memory format; these address connections to provenance modeling, the embedding of object memories in web pages, and potential benefits of an object memory API.
