SV-4 Systems functionality hierarchy (UPDM - DoDAF aliases)
Creation
To create an SV-4 Systems Functionality Hierarchy:
• Right-click the Architectural Description or Service Description that is to own the SV-4 Systems Functionality Hierarchy, point to New, point to Diagram, point to DoDAF, and then click SV-4 Systems Functionality Hierarchy.
Purpose
On an SV-4 Systems Functionality Hierarchy:
• Create Rule (System) and Service Policy elements and apply them to valid elements on the diagram.
Diagram Elements
For information about the creation and appearance of elements that can be shown on all Product diagrams (Representation, Definition, Information, Metadata, Overlap and Same As elements), see .
Activity Action (System)
To create an Activity Action (System): click the Activity Action (System) button, click the calling Activity (System), and then click the invoked Activity (System).
To create an Activity Maps To Capability: click the Activity Maps To Capability button, click the Activity (System), and then click the Capability that is mapped to.
Activity Performed by Performer
To create an Activity Performed by Performer: click the Activity Performed by Performer button, click the source element, and then click the Activity (System) that can be performed.
The source element can be a Performer (System), Organization Type, System Context, Person Role Type, Responsibility, Service Access or Software element.
Activity (System)
To create an Activity (System): click the Activity (System) button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Use Activity Performed by Performer relationships to link the Activity (System) to elements that can perform that Activity (System). The following elements can perform an Activity (System): Performer (System), Organization Type, System Context, Person Role Type, Responsibility, Service Access and Software elements.
Architectural Description
To create an Architectural Description: click the Architectural Description button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
To populate elements from an Architectural Description: add the Architectural Description to the diagram, and then populate those elements from the Architectural Description.
Architectural Reference
To create an Architectural Reference: click the Architectural Reference button, click the source Architectural Description, and then click the destination Architectural Description.
Architecture Metadata
To create an Architecture Metadata: click the Architecture Metadata button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Define the text of the Architecture Metadata through its Full Text property.
To apply an Architecture Metadata to an Architectural Description: click the Note Link button, click the Architecture Metadata, and then click the Architectural Description to which the Architecture Metadata applies.
Capability
To create a Capability: click the Capability button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Use Activity Maps To Capability relationships to link the Capability to Activity (System) elements that map to that Capability.
Organization Type
To create an Organization Type: click the Organization Type button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Use Activity Performed by Performer relationships to link the Organization Type to the Activity (System) elements that the Organization Type can perform.
Performer (System)
To create a Performer (System): click the Performer (System) button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Use Activity Performed by Performer relationships to link the Performer (System) to the Activity (System) elements that the Performer (System) can perform.
Person Role Type
To create a Person Role Type: click the Person Role Type button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Use Activity Performed by Performer relationships to link the Person Role Type to the Activity (System) elements that the Person Role Type can perform.
Responsibility
To create a Responsibility: click the Responsibility button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Use Activity Performed by Performer relationships to link the Responsibility to the Activity (System) elements that the Responsibility can perform.
Rule (System)
To create a Rule (System): click the Rule (System) button, and then click in free space on the diagram. Use the Full Text property to specify the text of the Rule (System).
To apply a Rule (System) to an element on the diagram: click the Note Link button, click the Rule (System), and then click the element to which the Rule (System) applies.
You can apply a Rule (System) to Performer (System), Activity (System), Organization Type, System Context, Person Role Type, Responsibility, Service Access and Software elements.
Service Access
To create a Service Access: click the Service Access button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Use Activity Performed by Performer relationships to link the Service Access to the Activity (System) elements that the Service Access can perform.
Service Policy
To create a Service Policy: click the Service Policy button, and then click in free space on the diagram. Use the Full Text property to specify the text of the Service Policy.
To apply a Service Policy to an element on the diagram: click the Note Link button, click the Service Policy, and then click the element to which the Service Policy applies.
You can apply a Service Policy to Performer (System), Organization Type, System Context, Person Role Type, Responsibility, Service Access and Software elements.
Software
To create a Software: click the Software button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Use Activity Performed by Performer relationships to link the Software to the Activity (System) elements that the Software can perform.
System
To create a System: click the System button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Use Activity Performed by Performer relationships to link the System to the Activity (System) elements that the System can perform.
System Context
To create a System Context: click the System Context button, and then click in free space on the diagram.
Use Activity Performed by Performer relationships to link the System Context to the Activity (System) elements that the System Context can perform.
