EXPRESS is a standard for generic data modeling language for product data. EXPRESS is formalized in the ISO Standard for the Exchange of Product model STEP (ISO 10303), and standardized as ISO 10303-11.[1]
Data models formally define data objects and relationships among data objects for a domain of interest. Some typical applications of data models include supporting the development of databases and enabling the exchange of data for a particular area of interest. Data models are specified in a data modeling language.[2] EXPRESS is a data modeling language defined in ISO 10303-11, the EXPRESS Language Reference Manual.[3]
An EXPRESS data model can be defined in two ways, textually and graphically. For formal verification and as input for tools such as SDAI the textual representation within an ASCII file is the most important one. The graphical representation on the other hand is often more suitable for human use such as explanation and tutorials. The graphical representation, called EXPRESS-G, is not able to represent all details that can be formulated in the textual form.
EXPRESS is similar to programming languages such as Pascal. Within a SCHEMA various datatypes can be defined together with structural constraints and algorithmic rules. A main feature of EXPRESS is the possibility to formally validate a population of datatypes - this is to check for all the structural and algorithmic rules.
EXPRESS-G is a standard graphical notation for information models.[4] It is a companion to the EXPRESS language for displaying entity and type definitions, relationships and cardinality.[5] This graphical notation supports a subset of the EXPRESS language. One of the advantages of using EXPRESS-G over EXPRESS is that the structure of a data model can be presented in a more understandable manner. A disadvantage of EXPRESS-G is that complex constraints cannot be formally specified. Figure 1 is an example. The data model presented in figure could be used to specify the requirements of a database for an audio compact disc (CD) collection.[2]
Entity attributes allow to add "properties" to entities and to relate one entity with another one in a specific role. The name of the attribute specifies the role. Most datatypes can directly serve as type of an attribute. This includes aggregation as well.
There are three different kinds of attributes, explicit, derived and inverse attributes. And all these can be re-declared in a subtype. In addition an explicit attribute can be re-declared as derived in a subtype. No other change of the kind of attributes is possible.
An entity can be defined to be a subtype of one or several other entities (multiple inheritance is allowed!). A supertype can have any number of subtypes. It is very common practice in STEP to build very complex sub-supertype graphs. Some graphs relate 100 and more entities with each other.
An entity instance can be constructed for either a single entity (if not abstract) or for a complex combination of entities in such a sub-supertype graph. For the big graphs the number of possible combinations is likely to grow in astronomic ranges. To restrict the possible combinations special supertype constraints got introduced such as ONEOF and TOTALOVER. Furthermore, an entity can be declared to be abstract to enforce that no instance can be constructed of just this entity but only if it contains a non-abstract subtype.
Entities and defined data types may be further constrained with .mw-parser-output .monospacedfont-family:monospace,monospaceWHERE rules. WHERE rules are also part of global rules. A WHERE rule is an expression, which must evaluate to TRUE, otherwise a population of an EXPRESS schema, is not valid. Like derived attributes these expression may invoke EXPRESS functions, which may further invoke EXPRESS procedures. The functions and procedures allow formulating complex statements with local variables, parameters and constants - very similar to a programming language.
Designed from the ground up for SSDs, the NVM Express (NVMe) base specification was initially created to help define how host software communicates with non-volatile memory across a PCI Express (PCIe) bus. It has quickly evolved into the industry standard for PCIe solid state drives (SSDs) in many form factors (U.2, M.2, AIC, EDSFF). The NVMe base specification offered an efficient interface, providing lower latency, that is more scalable for SSDs than legacy interfaces, like serial ATA (SATA).
The NVMe 2.0 family of specifications was released on June 3, 2021. The NVMe library of specifications is divided into eight different specifications, including the NVMe Base specification, Command Set specifications (NVM Command Set specification, ZNS Command Set specification, KV Command Set specification) and Transport specifications (PCIe Transport specification, RDMA Transport specification and TCP Transport specification). The NVMe Management Interface specification will be kept separate.
The restructured NVMe 2.0 specifications enable faster and simpler development of NVMe technology, supporting the seamless deployment of flash-based solutions in many emerging market segments. The specifications include evolutionary new features like Zoned Namespaces (ZNS), Key Value (KV), Rotational Media and Endurance Group Management.
The NVM Express (NVMe) family of specifications define how host software communicates with non-volatile memory across multiple transports like PCI Express (PCIe), RDMA, TCP and more. It is the industry standard for solid state drives (SSDs) in all form factors (U.2, M.2, AIC, EDSFF). NVM Express is the non-profit consortium of tech industry leaders defining, managing and marketing NVMe technology. The latest versions of the family of specifications, NVMe 2.0 family of specifications, were released on June 3, 2021.
The NVMe 2.0 family of specifications consists of multiple documents, including the NVMe Base specification, Command Set specifications (e.g., NVM Command Set specification, ZNS Command Set specification, KV Command Set specification), Transport specifications (e.g., PCIe Transport specification, Fibre Channel Transport specification, RDMA Transport specification and TCP Transport specification), NVMe Boot specification, and the NVMe Management Interface specification.
The NVM Express Base (NVM Express Base) Specification defines a protocol for host software to communicate with non-volatile memory subsystems over a variety of memory-based transports and message-based transports.
NVM Express I/O Command Set Specifications define data structures, features, log pages, commands, and status values that extend the NVM Express Base Specification. NVM Express Transport specifications define the binding of the NVMe protocol including controller properties to a specific transport.
PCI-SIG specifications define standards driving the industry-wide compatibility of peripheral component interconnects. Members regularly review them, providing commentary and change requests when necessary. These requests are considered by technical workgroups and applied as appropriate, resulting in collaboratively devised specifications benefiting millions of platforms and add-in devices.

For hotels, currently the PMS serves as the primary interface for guests, reservations, folio, and room data. Because of this, any system that interacts with any of these entities requires an integration to be effective. Not all integrations are created equal. Integrations that require only a subset of the functionality of the PMS go through the same process as distribution channels.
Early integration standards with HTNG were focused on distributing room inventory, connecting a PMS with OTAs, CRS, GDS, Website, CRM, etc. The process of systems integrations in hotels is generally lengthy and complex. This is especially true for integrations with the PMS systems, which have the highest demand due to their importance.
The creation of a new specification and process allows vendors that need a limited set of functionality to integrate with the PMS in a more expedient way. By adding constraints on what information is accessible and what capabilities are available, we can simplify the end-to-end integration process for all parties involved.
HTNG Express is a new solution that will shorten the process for property management system integrations from months to just days. HTNG Express is a revolutionary new and free product that will save hoteliers time, increase competition among vendors and drive innovation.
COM Express is a family of modular, small form factor computer-on-module (COM) specifications for mid-range edge processing and networking that has become one of the most popular embedded hardware standards in the world.
