MODAF. AV-2 Integrated Dictionary

Description

An AV-2 presents all the Elements used in an architecture as a standalone structure. An AV-2 presents all the Elements as a specialization hierarchy, provides a text definition for each one and references the source of the element. An AV-2 shows elements from the Ontology that have been used in the architecture and new elements that have been introduced by the architecture. Architectures often introduce new terms – usually because the architecture is covering new technology or business processes. The purpose of the AV-2 is to provide a local extension of the Ontology to explain the terms and abbreviations used in building the architecture.

Implementation

AV-2 can be represented:

• Using a report, which is automatically generated from all data.

• An AV-2 table.

  If you have AV-2 diagrams from previous versions, they will be migrated into the AV-1 diagram when loading the project with UPDM 17.0.2.
