A SvcV-3b enables a quick overview of all the services resource interactions specified in one or more SvcV-1 Services Context Description models. The SvcV-3b provides a tabular summary of the services interactions specified in the SvcV-1 Services Context Description for the Architectural Description. The matrix format supports a rapid assessment of potential commonalities and redundancies (or, if fault-tolerance is desired, the lack of redundancies). In addition, this model is useful in support of the net-centric (service-oriented) implementation of services as an input to the SvcV-10a Services Rules Model, SvcV-10b Services State Transition Description, and SvcV-10c Services Event-Trace Description, implemented as orchestrations of services.
Usage
The intended usage of the SvcV-3b includes:
- Summarizing service resource interactions.
- Interface management.
- Comparing interoperability characteristics of solution options.
Product Description
The SvcV-1 concentrates on Service resources and their interactions, and these are summarized in a SvcV-3a or SvcV-3b.
The SvcV-3b is presented as a matrix, where the Services resources are listed in the rows and columns of the matrix, and each cell indicates an interaction between Services if one exists.
Creating a Services-Services Matrix
To open the Services-Services Matrix:
- Click on Services-Services Matrix in the Action Artifact area.
- View the relationships between resources listed in the rows and columns. The cells indicate an interaction between resources if one exists
