UAF Actual Resources Views
The UAF 1.2 Actual Resources Views constitute an optional modeling domain that emphasizes instances of artifact types rather than their abstract classifications. This domain offers a structured framework for documenting and analyzing the tangible, real-world realization of architectural elements. It defines specific solution classes that leverage effective collaboration between human actors and systems to achieve mission objectives and deliver required capabilities. By capturing the detailed properties, configurations, and interrelationships of deployed resources in operational environments, this domain enables architects to bridge the gap between conceptual design and actual implementation. The associated viewpoints support modeling of physical systems, deployed software instances, facilities, and other instantiated artifacts, providing a foundation for thorough analysis of real-world architectural deployments and their performance characteristics.
UAF Actual Resources Views
|
Actual Resources Connectivity Ar-Cn |
Stakeholders: Solution Providers, Systems Engineers, Business Architects. Concerns: The communication of actual resource. Definition: Illustrates the actual resource configurations and actual relationships between them. |
|
Actual Resources Structure Ar-Sr |
Stakeholders: Solution Providers, Systems Engineers, Business Architects. Concerns: The analysis, e.g., evaluation of different alternatives, what-if, trade-offs, V&V on the actual resource configurations as it provides a means to capture different solution architectures. The detailed analysis (trade-off, what-if, etc.) is carried out using the Resource Constraints view. Definition: Illustrates the expected or achieved actual resource configurations required to meet an operational need. |
|
Actual Resources Traceability Ar-Tr |
Stakeholders: Systems Engineers, Enterprise Architects, Solution Providers, Business Architects. Concerns: Traceability between operational activities and functions that implements them. Definition: Depicts the mapping of functions to operational activities and thus identifies the transformation of an operational need into a purposeful function performed by a resource or solution. |
