NAF 4.1-view P6: Resource Sequence

P6 — Resource Sequence

Purpose & Usage

The P6 Viewpoint is concerned with identifying the chronological sequence of the Interactions between active Resources in a scenario.

  • Message Handling.
  • Complex System Behaviours.
  • Security Modelling.
  • Analysis of resource events impacting operation.
  • Behavioural analysis.

Scope

  • Shall contain Resource Lifelines representing Physical Active Resources.
  • Shall contain the Resource Interactions between Resource Lifelines.
  • May show Resource Events that trigger Resource Interactions.
  • May show Resource Functions related to Resource Interactions.

Representation

  • Topological (connected shapes).
  • Sequence Diagram.
