SysFEAT - Systemic Framework for Enterprise Architecture & Transformation

CLASS OF CLASS OF INDIVIDUAL - Interaction Process

Description

Abstract Concept

An Interaction Process is a story (Behavior) that describes how the components of an Agent interacts to produce and consume Outcome Events.
This includes:

1) A course of events represented by Object Flows depicting the succesion of intermediate Outcome Events towards the production of the final Outcome Events.

2) Interacting Agents who participate to the story.

Conceptualization Levels of Interaction Process: an Interaction Process is either a Conceptual Interaction Scenario or a Resource Interaction Process

Functional Domain: System Operating Framework - SOF

The System Operating Framework - SOF models how an active system (Agent) operates/functions (Behavior) in its Operating Eco-System to produce Outcome Events that benefit (value) to other Agents or affect (have an effect upon) these Agents.

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.
