SysFEAT - Systemic Framework for Enterprise Architecture & Transformation

CLASS OF CLASS OF INDIVIDUAL - Operating Eco-System

Description

Abstract Concept
An Operating Eco-System is an Operating Context in which an Agent exists or lives for a specific purpose, interacting with partners.
For instance, the operating context of an enterprise includes its customers and suppliers.

Conceptualization Levels of Operating Eco-System: an Operating Eco-System is either a Conceptual Ecosystem
Structural Partition of Operating Eco-System: an Operating Eco-System is either an Environment Interaction Process or an Agent Environment

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.

Relationship	Cardinality	Target Entity	Source Entity	Description
Operating Connector	[*..0]	Operating Connection	Operating Eco-System
Ecosystem Member	[*..0]	Operating Eco-System	Operating Eco-System
Specialized Functional Asset	[*..0]	Functional Asset	Functional Asset
Realized Functional Asset	[*..0]	Functional Asset	Functional Asset	A kind of specialization between an implementing Functional Asset and its abstract Realized Functional Asset.Realization relationships are the foundation to establish the mapping between Functional Assets that belong to different Conceptualization Levels.
Policy Conformance	[*..0]	Policy	Functional Asset	A Policy Conformance is the conformity requirement that applies a Functional Asset.
Risk	[*..0]	Risk Type	Functional Asset	A Risk refers to the potential for loss resulting from inadequate structure or behavior of a Functional Asset.
Start Type	[*..0]	Temporal Bounding Type	Class of Bounded Individual
End Type	[*..0]	Temporal Bounding Type	Class of Bounded Individual
Temporal Sequencing Type	[*..0]	Temporal Bounding Type	Class of Bounded Individual
Aggregate Composition Type	[*..0]	Class of Bounded Individual	Class of Bounded Individual	An Aggregate Composition Type is a reified flavor of Composition Type whereby the referenced Class of Individual is aggregated in its parent (whole) Class of Bounded Individual.Example:1) A Process Step is the reification of the composition of a child process in a parent process.2)
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].
Enumerated Definition	[1..1]	Environment Interaction Process	Operating Eco-System
Enumerated Definition	[1..1]	Agent Environment	Operating Eco-System
