SV-3 Systems-Systems Matrix
SV-3 Description
 
SV-3
SV-3 Systems-Systems Matrix
The relationships among systems in a given Architectural Description. It can be designed to show relationships of interest, (e.g., system-type interfaces, planned vs. existing interfaces).
For a more detailed description see the DoDAF web site: SV-3: Systems Systems Matrix.
SV-3 HOPEX Implementation
Several types of reports are available for this viewpoint.
A SV-3 enables a quick overview of all the system resource interactions specified in one or more SV-1 Systems Interface Description models.
To create an SV-3 report:
1. In the navigation menu, click Systems Viewpoint > SV-3 Systems-Systems Matrix.
2. Click New to create a report.
3. In the dialog box that appears, select one of the report templates available:
SV-3 interactions between a list of agents
*Select from the agent list an object type and connect the objects of interest.
This matrix shows the different interactions between the selected objects.
SV-3 interactions between the agents of an enterprise
This matrix shows the interactions between object types of a specific enterprise.
You may find:
The context and consumer agent in rows
The provider agent in columns.
The intersection displays the type of content exchanged (content, exchange contract).
SV-3 interactions between the agents of an enterprise undertaking
SV-3 interactions between the children of an agent
This matrix shows the interactions between the children of a specific agent (for example a system).
You need to select the agent in the creation wizard.
SV-3 Impact (Scenario)
This report looks for the contents sent by the IT System/Application System with their target and context (through scenarios).
SV-3 Impact (Structure)
This report looks for the contents sent by the System/Application System with their target and context (through structures).
SV-3 External Contents Matrix (Scenario)
This matrix presents:
contents in rows
agents in columns
Each cell indicates whether the corresponding agent is the source or the target of the flow.
SV-3 External Contents Matrix (Structure)
Same as above but for structure diagrams
SV-3 External Exchange Contents Matrix
This matrix presents:
exchange contracts in rows
agents in columns
Each cell indicates whether the corresponding agent is the source or the target of the flow.
