• The first parameter indicates the Architecture to be analyzed.

• The second parameter, the Operational Activity Subset, is optional. It restricts the study to a subset of the operational activities. If this parameter is not set, all the activities defined in the architecture are taken into account. This can result in a large matrix. To focus on a specific part of the architecture, the parameter value is defined using either activities or business capabilities (business processes).

• The third parameter, the System Task Subset, which is also optional, is used to reduce the scope of the study to a subset of the system functions defined in the architecture. If this parameter is not set, all the system functions defined in the architecture are taken into account. The parameter value is defined by setting system capabilities as shortcuts to all the contained system functions.
