SysFEAT - Systemic Framework for Enterprise Architecture & Transformation

CLASS OF CLASS OF CONNECTION - Service Interface

Description

Abstract Concept
A Service Interface is an interaction Behavior Type that describes a typical course of Flow Connections, coordinated by Behavioral Events and Outcome Events, and intended to produce Outcomes through the involvement of Agent Types.

Conceptualization Levels of Service Interface: a Service Interface is either a Resource Service Interface or a Conceptual Service Interface

Functional Domain: System Operating Framework - SOF

The System Operating Framework - SOF models how an active system (Agent Type) operates/functions (Behavior Type) in its Operating Eco-System to produce Outcome Events that benefit (value) to other Agent Types or affect (have an effect upon) these Agent Types.

Start Event	[1..1]	Behavioral Event	Behavior Type	Abstract Relationship A Start Event is a temporal border of a Behavior Type representating its reaction to a Behavioral Event that starts it.
Input	[*..0]	Outcome Event	Behavior Type	Abstract Relationship An Input is a border of a Behavior Type that refers to the reaction to an Outcome Event that starts the Behavior Type.
End Event	[1..1]	Behavioral Event	Behavior Type	Abstract Relationship An End Event is a temporal border of a Behavior Type representing the production of a Behavioral Event that ends it.
Output	[*..0]	Outcome Event	Behavior Type	Abstract Relationship An Output is a border of a Behavior Type that refers to the production of an Outcome Event that ends the Behavior Type.

Hierarchical Member	[*..0]	Building Block	Aggregate Block	A Hierarchical Member is an Aggregate Member that is also a Block Lexical Scope for the Building Block it aggregates: it relates its aggregated block by nesting (see Nesting Relationship).Hierarchical Members are used to build hierarchical structures of Building Blocks, in constrast to Block Members which are used to build network structures of Building Blocks.
Block Member	[*..0]	Building Block	Aggregate Block	A Block Member is an Aggregate Member that aggregates its releated Building Block by reference (see Referencing Relationship).Block Members are used to build network structures of Building Blocks while Hierarchical Members are used to build hierarchical structures of Building Blocks.
Existential Dependency	[1..1]	Entity	Entity	Abstract Relationship An Existential Dependency relationship is a Relationship where the source Entitys existence depends on the existence of the target Entity.The cardinality of the set of targetted Entity is [1..1].
