Resource operation (UPDM

• From a Capability Configuration, Organization, Physical Architecture, Post, Resource Artifact, Responsibility, Service Access or Software: right-click the element, point to New, point to NAF, and then click Resource Operation.

On the Select Realizes dialog, select the realized Function. Modeler sets the name of the Resource Operation to that of the realized Function.

• From an NSV-1 Resource Specification: click the

Resource Operation toolbar button, and then click the owning element.

On the Select Realizes dialog, select the realized Function. Modeler sets the name of the Resource Operation to that of the realized Function.

• From an NSV-10c Resource Event-Trace Description, click the

Resource Operation Message or

Resource Operation Reply Message toolbar button, in line with the required Statement click the source lifeline, and then click the destination lifeline.

When you create the Resource Operation message, you are prompted to create or select the Resource Operation that represents the Function you want to show on the NSV-10c Resource Event-Trace Description.

To change the Resource Operation element's realized Function: right-click the Resource Operation, point to Links, and then click Realizes.

When shown on an NSV-1 Resource Specification, a Resource Operation appears similar to as follows:

When shown on an NSV-10b Resource State Transition Description, a Resource Operation appears as a Do Resource Operation call:

When shown on an NSV-10c Resource Event-Trace Description, a Resource Operation appears as a Resource Operation message:

The following relationships are of importance to a Resource Operation:

• A Resource Operation Action can invoke a Resource Operation.

• A Resource Atomic State, Resource Concurrent State and Resource Sequential State element can call a Resource Operation through a Do Resource Operation call.

The following sections provide information about how a Resource Operation is used in the model.
