Multiple pieces of the Workbench (e.g. https://issues.jboss.org/browse/PLANNER-371, https://issues.jboss.org/browse/PLANNER-349) require a data set as an input. Create a tool (generic if possible, so that it can be reused by other WB modules) that enables a user to define data sets based on existing data model. The data set will contain instances of individual DataObjects, with the attribute values initialized.

e.g.

 
Computer {
  int cost;
  int memory;
  int networkBandwith;
  int cpuPower
}

Data set definition pseudocode:

Data set "Dataset 1" : {Computer(500, 1024, 100, 1000), Computer(1000, 8196, 100, 2000)}
Data set "Dataset 2" : {Computer(500, 1024, 100, 1000)}

The above indicates there is a requirement to manage multiple datasets (as this will be especially useful for the benchmarker). Additionally examine a way to share instances between the datasets to make the definition process easier if the data objects are complex.

The first iteration will provide a way to create the dataset from the UI. The following ones should support loading the data from external resources (e.g. DB, xls spreadsheets, etc.)
