The team led by Finmeccanica has been award for the valiable technical specifications representing a core element of the SWIM Concept. SESAR SWIM definition (adopted also by ICAO): SWIM consists of standards, infrastructure and governance enabling the management of ATM information and its exchange between qualified parties via interoperable services. SWIM is about to provide the right information to right stakeolder at the right time.

 SWIM (System Wide Information Management) consists of standards, infrastructure and
governance enabling the management of ATM information and its exchange between
qualified parties via interoperable services.
 Information Systems Interoperability, especially in the ATM context, is a complex topic that
may be faced from different perspectives: systems, data and governance.

Scope Of SWIM-TI
ScopeOfSWIM
SWIM covers primarily the
syntactical, the semantic and
technical interoperability levels.
Technical Interoperability is faced by
SWIM Technical Infrastructure
(SWIM-TI) that aims at enabling
proper consumption and provision
of ATM services.

 Interoperability between ATM systems is based on properly designed services.
 All technical interoperability needs of the System of Systems (SoS) are taken into consideration and
segmented into groups for each of which a satisfactory uniform and standard based solution is defined:
the SWIM Profiles.
 The SWIM Profiles represent appropriate mandated solutions including the required SWIM Technical
Infrastructure features, adopted standards, configurations and Quality of Services.
 Currently 3 SWIM profiles have been specified: Yellow Profile, Blue Profile and Purple Profile.
 SWIM Profiles Technical Specifications are defined by SESAR P14.01.04 according to authoritative SWIM-TI
design artifacts provided by P14.01.03 (TAD, SWIM Profiles definition).

Best in class Nomination for P14.01.04
What is relevant in its work for the nomination?
 P14.01.04, in tight coordination with P14.01.03, delivers authoritative SWIM-TI design
artifacts (SWIM-TI Technical Specifications (TSs) Catalogue):
SWIM-TI Identity Management Technical
Specification including functional, non-functional
and interface requirements for PKIs and Security
Token Services.
SWIM-TI Run-time Registry Technical Specification
including functional, non-functional and interface
requirements. It includes standards such as UDDI.
Profile Name Scope Key Elements
Yellow Profile
 Based on the Web Services stack of
standards running over Internet and
sufficiently secured.
 Deployment options kept open as possible.
 Wide variety of interactions, flexibility and
affordable for the service consumer.
 Usable out-of-the-box with mainstream
tools.
 No real-time or near real-time uses.
 Non demanding high availability.
 Yellow Profile consists of different
parts: “Core”, “Messaging+”,
“Advance” and “Security+”.
 The Web Services family of protocols
based on SOAP (SOAP 1.1 and 1.2,
WSDL 1.1 and 2.0, WS-Security 1.1).
 Transport level security controls (TLS
1.0, TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2).
 The AMQP v1.0 protocol.
 Cryptography (PKI X.509 v3, XML
Encryption, XML Signature and ECRYPT
II).
Profile Name Scope Key Elements
Blue Profile
 Primarily Real-time or near real-time uses
(best effort also supported).
 Demanding high availability with severe
constraints with respect to the available
resources.
 Technical solution as much as possible
supported out-of-the-box.
 Secured interactions (different security
levels).
 Running over trusted and untrusted
networks.
 Blue Profile consists of different parts:
“Core” and “Flight Data Domain”.
 The Web Services family of protocols
based on SOAP (SOAP 1.1, WSDL 1.1).
 OMG Real-time Publish-Subscribe
specifications (DDS v1.2 and DDS-I
v2.1).
 Transport level security controls (TLS
1.0).
 Message level security controls (OMG
DDS Security).
 Cryptography (PKI X.509 v3, and
ECRYPT II).
Profile Name Scope Key Elements
Purple Profile
 High latency and/or low bandwidth
conditions.
 No Real-time or near real-time uses.
 Need to minimize the communication
overhead and transport connections
number.
 Technical solution as much as possible
supported out-of-the-box.
 To enable proper information sharing in
scenarios where availability of end-to-end
connectivity over the communication
infrastructure is intermittent and
unpredictable.
 Purple Profile consists of different
parts: “Core” and “Messaging
Bridging”.
 Advanced Message Queuing Protocol
(AMQP) (version 0-9-1).
 Transport level security controls (TLS
1.0, TLS 1.1 and TLS 1.2).
 Cryptography (PKI X.509 v3, XML
Encryption, XML Signature and ECRYPT
II).

Best in class Nomination for P14.01.04
What is relevant in its work for the nomination?
 P14.01.04 Technical Specifications are being adopted as European standards (e.g. PCP).
 P14.01.04 Technical Specifications are being refined in global standardizations activities (e.g.
ICAO/FAA).
 P14.01.04 demonstrated high quality requirements management.
 P14.01.04 is playing a proactive and key role in several SESAR programme level activities
including WMS (Working Method on Services), Service Design (e.g. STDD), SWIM Global
Demonstration, SEMG (predecessor of SWIM governance) and security and architecture
threads.
 P14.01.04 has ensured the timely delivery of the SWIM-TI specifications while maintaining
synchronization with the rest of the SESAR programme.
