Parameter (operational) (UPDM - DoDAF aliases)
Creation
To create a Parameter (Operational):
• From an
Operation (Operational),
Activity (Operational), or
Standard Activity (Operational): right-click the element, point to New, point to DoDAF, and then click Parameter (Operational).
On the Select Type dialog, create or select the element that is the type of the Parameter (Operational), or create an untyped Parameter (Operational).
The type of a Parameter (Operational) can be a
Performer (System),
Energy,
Exchange Element,
Geo Political Extent Type,
Operational Context,
Performer (Operational),
Organization Type,
System Context,
Person Role Type,
System,
Responsibility,
Security Domain,
Service Access, or
Software element.
A Parameter (Operational) can be represented by an
Input Pin (Operational) or
Output Pin (Operational) on an
OV-5 Operational Activity Model. You can create a Parameter (Operational) element when creating an Input Pin (Operational) or Output Pin (Operational).
Appearance
A Parameter (Operational) does not appear on any diagrams.
Relationships
The following relationships are of importance to a Parameter (Operational):
•
Input Pin (Operational) and
Output Pin (Operational) elements represent Parameter (Operational) elements on an
OV-5 Operational Activity Model.
The following sections provide information about how a Parameter (Operational) is used in the model.
