SysFEAT - Systemic Framework for Enterprise Architecture & Transformation

CLASS OF CLASS OF INDIVIDUAL - Environment Interaction Process Type

Description

Abstract Concept

An Environment Interaction Process Type is a story that describes how an Agent Type interacts with its partners (Partner Agent) to achieve Outcome Events in a specific Operating Eco-System (Agent Type Environment).

This includes:

1) A course of events represented by Object Flows depicting the succession of intermediate Outcome Events towards the production and consumption of final Outcome Events.

2) Interacting partners who participate to the story in the considered Operating Eco-System.

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.

Relationship Table

Relationship	Cardinality	Target Entity	Source Entity	Description
Object Flow	[*..0]	Outcome Event	Environment Interaction Process Type	Abstract Relationship
Subject Agent	[1..1]	Agent Type	Environment Interaction Process Type	Abstract Relationship Agent Type that is the subject of the Environment Interaction Process Type.
Partner Agent	[*..0]	Agent Type	Environment Interaction Process Type	Abstract Relationship Agent Types which are partners of the Subject Agent of an Environment Interaction Process Type.
Scenario Participant	[*..0]	Agent Type	Environment Interaction Process Type	Abstract Relationship
Specialized Functional Asset	[*..0]	Functional Asset	Functional Asset	Abstract Relationship
Realized Functional Asset	[*..0]	Functional Asset	Functional Asset	Abstract Relationship A kind of specialization between an implementing Functional Asset and its abstract Realized Functional Asset.Realization relationships are the foundation to establish the mapping between Functional Assets that belong to different Conceptualization Levels.
Policy Conformance	[*..0]	Policy	Functional Asset	A Policy Conformance is the conformity requirement that applies a Functional Asset.
Risk	[*..0]	Risk Type	Functional Asset	Abstract Relationship A Risk refers to the potential for loss resulting from inadequate structure or behavior of a Functional Asset.
Start Type	[*..0]	Temporal Bounding Type	Class of Bounded Individual	Abstract Relationship
End Type	[*..0]	Temporal Bounding Type	Class of Bounded Individual	Abstract Relationship
Temporal Sequencing Type	[*..0]	Temporal Bounding Type	Class of Bounded Individual	Abstract Relationship
Aggregate Composition Type	[*..0]	Class of Bounded Individual	Class of Bounded Individual	Abstract Relationship An Aggregate Composition Type is a reified flavor of Composition Type whereby the referenced Class of Individual is aggregated in its parent (whole) Class of Bounded Individual.Example:1) A Process Step is the reification of the composition of a child process in a parent process.2)
Referencing Relationship	[*..0]	Entity	Entity	Abstract Relationship A Referencing Relationship is a Relationship that points at its target Entity through Reference Adjacency.
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].
Existential Independence	[*..0]	Entity	Entity	Abstract Relationship An Existential Independence relationship is a Relationship that specifies that the existence the source Entity doesnt depend on the existence of its target Entity.The cardinality of set set of targetted Entity is [0..*].
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.
