Relationships
The following relationships are of importance to a Capability:
◦ Generalization relationships to define inheritance (
CV-2 Capability Taxonomy).
◦
Capability Of Performer relationships link a Capability to elements that exhibit that Capability.
◦
Expose relationships link a Capability to
Service Interface elements that are exposed by that Capability.
◦
Activity Maps To Capability relationships link a Capability to
Activity (System),
Activity (Operational),
Standard Activity (Operational), and
Activity (Project) elements that map to that Capability.
The following sections provide information about how a Capability is used in the model.
