Imminent New System Views
•
SV-1a Interface Description
. Shows interfaces (Resource Flows) between Systems,
Services, and/or Person Types
•
SV-1b Performer Configuration Diagram
. Interface Description plus composition
(whole-parts) of Resources involved. If Locations are involved in the configuration,
relationships to Resources.
•
SV-1c Functional Allocation
. Activities (System Functions) performed by Systems,
Services, and Person Types.
•
SV-1d Organizational Resources
. Shows Resources that are part of (whole-part)
Organizations.
•
SV-1e Organizational Dependencies
. Shows Organizations whose Activities are
reified by System Functions (Activities) performed by Performer Configurations.
All Views
should show traceability to higher-order reifications, other views that
constitute requirements, and/or other non-view requirements. [ASD 2012]
My note: NOT sure how SV-1d would differ from relations represent-able via OV-4.
DM2 Domain Class Hierarchy (1 of 2)
DM2 Domain Class Hierarchy (2 of 2)
Overspecialization Kills: Natural Evidence
Reference: [Tonmo].
Simple design is most commonly transcendental. All Ammonite arthropods are extinct,
only a few Ceriatite varieties still exist, and no decline in Goniatites has been observed.
How to Map Information sets? Very Laboriously!
•
Correlate Terms
Complete matches—Equivalence—ideal; usually a low %
Partial matches common
Names match,
definition
Semantics differ
Names differ,
definition
Semantics match or similar
Names & Semantics match, Relations to other terms differ
•
Correlate Taxonomies?
Mappings require selection of one (1) base set
Forces “baking” mappings in to an information set (!)
•
Correlate Ontologies?
–
Possible
only if
Relation
temporal
Semantics match
