Responsibility (UPDM - NAF aliases)
Creation
To create a Responsibility:
From an Architectural Description or Service Description: right-click the Architectural Description or Service Description, point to New, point to NAF, point to Operational, and then click Responsibility.
From a Responsibility: right-click the Responsibility, point to New, point to NAF, and then click Responsibility.
From an NOV-4 Typical Organizational Relationships Chart, NSV-1 Resource Specification, NSV-4 Functionality Hierarchy, NSV-5 Function to Operational Activity/Service Function Definition or NSV-9 Technology and Skills Forecast Definition: click the Responsibility toolbar button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Appearance
When shown on an NOV-4 Typical Organizational Relationships Chart, NSV-1 Resource Specification, NSV-4 Functionality Hierarchy, NSV-5 Function to Operational Activity/Service Function Definition or NSV-9 Technology and Skills Forecast Definition, a Responsibility appears as follows:
When shown on an NSV-1 Resource Interaction Specification or NSV-2 System Communications Description, a Responsibility appears as follows:
Relationships
The following relationships are of importance to a Responsibility:
UML Generalizations define Responsibility inheritance ( NSV-1 Resource Specification).
Forecast relationships link a Responsibility to forecasted future Responsibility elements.
Implements relationships link a Responsibility to the Node elements it implements.
Is Capable Of Performing relationships to link a Responsibility to the Function elements that can be performed by the Responsibility.
Requires Competence and Typically Provides Competence relationships link the Responsibility to the Competence elements that are required or provided by that Responsibility.
Used as a type for Resource Port and Resource Role elements.
Used as a conveyed classifier for Operational Exchange elements.
The following sections provide information about how a Responsibility is used in the model.
