The purpose of XMI is to enable easy interchange of metadata between UML-based
modeling tools and MOF-based metadata repositories in distributed heterogeneous environments. XMI integrates three industry standards:
XML - eXtensible Markup Language, a W3C standard. See XML (new window).
UML - Unified Modeling Language, an OMG modeling standard. See UML (new window).
