Performer (system) (UPDM - DoDAF aliases)
Creation
To create a Performer (System):
◦ From an Architectural Description or Service Description: right-click the Architectural Description or Service Description, point to New, point to DoDAF, point to System, and then click Performer (System).
◦ From a Performer (System): right-click the Performer (System), point to New, point to DoDAF, point to System, and then click Performer (System).
◦ From an SV-1 Systems Interface Definition, SV-1 Systems Interface Definition, SV-5 Function to Operational Activity/Service Function Definition or SV-9 Systems Technology and Skills Forecast Definition: click the Performer (System) toolbar button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Appearance
When shown on an SV-1 Systems Interface Definition, SV-1 Systems Interface Definition, SV-5 Function to Operational Activity/Service Function Definition or SV-9 Systems Technology and Skills Forecast Definition, a Performer (System) appears as follows:
When shown on an SV-1 Systems Interaction Specification or SV-2 Systems Resource Flow Description, a Performer (System) appears as follows:
Relationships
The following relationships are of importance to a Performer (System):
◦ UML Generalizations define Performer (System) inheritance (SV-1 Systems Interface Definition).
◦ Forecast relationships link a Performer (System) to forecasted future Performer (System) elements.
◦ Activity Performed by Performer relationships link a Performer (System) to Activity (System) elements that the Performer (System) can perform.
◦ Implements relationships link a Performer (System) to the Performer (Operational) and Security Domain elements it implements.
◦ Used as a type for System Port and Resource Role elements.
◦ Used as a conveyed classifier for Operational Exchange elements.
The following sections provide information about how a Performer (System) is used in the model.
Create a Performer (System) from
◦ Architectural Description
◦ Performer (System)
◦ Service Description
◦ SV-1 Systems Interface Definition
◦ SV-4 Systems Functionality Hierarchy
◦ SV-5 Function to Operational Activity/Service Function Definition
◦ SV-9 Systems Technology and Skills Forecast Definition
