Energy (UPDM - DoDAF aliases)
Creation
To create an Energy:
• From an Architectural Description or Service Description: right-click the Architectural Description or Service Description, point to New, point to DoDAF, point to Operational, and then click Energy.
• From an Energy: right-click the Energy, point to New, point to DoDAF, and then click Energy.
• From an OV-2 Operational Resource Definition or SV-1 Systems Interface Definition: click the Energy toolbar button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Appearance
When shown on an OV-2 Operational Resource Definition or SV-1 Systems Interface Definition, an Energy appears as follows:
Relationships
The following relationships are of importance to an Energy:
• UML Generalizations define Energy inheritance ( SV-1 Systems Interface Definition).
• Used as a type for System Port elements.
• Used as a conveyed classifier for Operational Exchange elements.
The following sections provide information about how an Energy is used in the model.
Create an Energy from
• Architectural Description
• Energy
• OV-2 Operational Resource Definition
• Service Description
• SV-1 Systems Interface Definition
Create from an Energy
In addition to the UPDM elements that can be created from all UPDM elements ( Representation, Definition, Information, and Metadata):
• Energy
• Property
• Rule (System)
Shown on these diagrams, tables and matrices
In addition to the AV-2 Integrated Dictionary and StdV-1 Standards Profile, which can show all UPDM elements:
• OV-2 Operational Resource Definition
• OV-3 Operational Resource Flow Matrix
• SV-1 Systems Interface Definition
• SV-6 Systems Resource Flow Matrix
• SV-10a Systems Rules Model (shows applied Rule (System) elements)
UPDM writeable properties
The following writeable properties are available on the Energy tab of an Energy element's Property Pages:
• isEncapsulated
• URI
