OV-3 Operational Resource Flow Matrix
The OV-3 model shows the matrix of the contents developed from the OV-2 and those defined in the OV-5 models.
The OV-2 model defines interactions that have protocol definitions. The definitions are refined by messages exchanged between different protocol roles. Each message carries an information element: the content.
The OV-5 model describes the functional behaviors of the operational nodes. From the activities performed by these nodes result some messages (modeled by BPMN message flows that also carry information elements.
One OV-3 report shows a matrix of the shared content between the OV-2 and OV-5a and 5b models.
OV-3 Metamodel
It is also possible to create content directly from the OV-3 model. In this case, the content is stamped at the operational level thanks to the View Type property.
