Atomic state (system) (UPDM - DoDAF aliases)
An Atomic State (System) is a proprietary element that is required to model UPDM in Modeler.
Creation
To create an Atomic State (System):
• From an SV-10b Systems State Transition Description: click the Atomic State (System) toolbar button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
• From a State Description (System): right-click the State Description (System), point to New, point to DoDAF, and then click Atomic State (System).
Appearance
When shown on an SV-10b Systems State Transition Description, an Atomic State (System) appears as follows:
Relationships
The following relationships are of importance to an Atomic State (System):
• UML Transitions link an Atomic State (System) to other State Diagram elements (SV-10b Systems State Transition Description).
• Activity (System) elements can be invoked by an Atomic State (System): right-click the Atomic State (System), point to Links, and then click Do Function.
• Operation (System) elements can be invoked by an Atomic State (System): right-click the Atomic State (System), point to Links, and then click Do Resource Operation.
• State Description (System) elements can be invoked by an Atomic State (System): right-click the Atomic State (System), point to Links, and then click Do Resource State Machine.
The following sections provide information about how an Atomic State (System) is used in the model.
