Logical architecture (UPDM - MODAF aliases)

Creation

To create a Logical Architecture:

• From an Architectural Description or Service Description: right-click the Architectural Description or Service Description, point to New, point to MODAF, point to Operational, and then click Logical Architecture.

• From a Logical Architecture: right-click the Logical Architecture, point to New, point to UPDM and then click Logical Architecture.

• From an OV-2 Operational Node Definition or OV-5 Operational Activity Hierarchy: click the

Logical Architecture toolbar button, and then click in free space on the diagram.

Appearance

When shown on an OV-2 Operational Node Definition or OV-5 Operational Activity Hierarchy, a Logical Architecture appears as follows:

On an OV-2 Operational Node Definition or OV-5 Operational Activity Hierarchy you can use Note Links to link a Logical Architecture to the Service Policy elements that apply to that Logical Architecture.

When shown on a Logical Architecture owned OV-2 Operational Node Relationship Description, a Logical Architecture appears as follows:

To show the owning Logical Architecture on an OV-2 Operational Node Relationship Description diagram: right-click the background of the diagram, point to Populate, and then click Owner.

Relationships

The following relationships are of importance to a Logical Architecture:

• UML Generalizations define Logical Architecture inheritance ( OV-2 Operational Node Definition).

• Used as a conveyed classifier for Operational Exchange elements.

The following sections provide information about how a Logical Architecture is used in the model.
