The NSV-8 Report Template
The NSV-8 report template gives a graphical understanding of the evolution planned for the system.
The first parameter indicates the architecture to be analyzed.
The second parameter, Master Plan Subset, which is optional, indicates the master plans to be analyzed. Groups of master plans are considered in report chapters to enable plan comparisons (see the chapter below). If no master plan is set, all the master plans of the architecture are taken into account and the collected master plans are compared individually.
A similar report is also displayed in the property pages of the master plan. It can be used as an input tool to create and modify the milestones and the planned items. This is known as the Gantt Chart Chapter.
The NSV-8 Gantt chart Chapter
This chapter gives an automatic graphical representation of the analyzed master plans. A Gantt chart is displayed for each master plan.

This chapter lists all the systems planned within the context of one or more master plans. The purpose of this chapter is to summarize planned items in relation the scenarios involved (What are the systems added? What is removed? What is maintained?).
The NSV-8 System Evolution Comparison Chapter
This chapter lists all the systems planned within the context of one or more master plans. The purpose of this chapter is to enable a comparison of the planned items in relation to the scenarios involved (What are the systems added? What is removed? What is maintained?). It also displays conflicts that exist among planned time periods.
