SysFEAT - Systemic Framework for Enterprise Architecture & Transformation

ENTITY - Aggregate Entity Block

Description

Abstract Concept

An Aggregate Entity Block is a self-contained and independant Aggregate Block that is not a Ordering Connection.

Examples:

- Operating Eco-System;

- Action Process;

- Directive;

- Agent.

Structural Partition of Aggregate Entity Block: an Aggregate Entity Block is either an Unbounded Aggregate or a Bounded Aggregate

Functional Domain: Compositionality

The purpose of the Compositionality family of concepts is to provide syntactic mechanisms that support the construction of composite Building Blocks.

Relationship	Cardinality	Target Entity	Source Entity	Description
Entity Member	[*..0]	Aggregate Entity Block	Aggregate Entity Block	An Entity Member is an Aggregate Member of an Aggregate Entity Block that aggregates another Aggregate Entity Block.
Unbounded Member	[*..0]	Unbounded Aggregate	Aggregate Entity Block	An Unbounded Member is an Entity Member of an Aggregate Entity Block that aggregates an Unbounded Aggregate.Because Entity Members do not have borders, Unbounded Members cannot be related by Ordering Connections (see Bounded Aggregate).
Hierarchical Member	[*..0]	Building Block	Aggregate Block	A Hierarchical Member is an Aggregate Member that is also a Block Lexical Scope for the Building Block it aggregates: it relates its aggregated block by nesting (see Nesting Relationship).Hierarchical Members are used to build hierarchical structures of Building Blocks, in constrast to Block Members which are used to build network structures of Building Blocks.
Block Member	[*..0]	Building Block	Aggregate Block	A Block Member is an Aggregate Member that aggregates its releated Building Block by reference (see Referencing Relationship).Block Members are used to build network structures of Building Blocks while Hierarchical Members are used to build hierarchical structures of Building Blocks.
Dependency Relationship	[1..1]	Entity	Entity	A Dependency Relationship is a Relationship that specifies the existential dependency of the sourceRelationship on its target Relationship.The cardinality to the target Entity is [1..1].
