MDG Technology for UPDM
Introduction
SparxSystems helps organisations to comply with specified architecture frameworks for the defence sector.
The integrable MDG technology to UPDM for Enterprise Architect provides a model-based framework for planning, designing and implementing architectures in the unified profile of DoDAF and MODAF (UPDM).
The Unified Profile for DoDAF and MODAF-UPDM allows users to create models using the UK Ministry of Defence architecture framework.
The MDG technology for UPDM with Enterprise Architect enables:
Creating models of complex systems that describe hardware, software, data, organisations and processes.
The definition of consistent, precise architectures with a clear separation of the areas of service, systems, measures, strategies and skills/resources
The analysis, specification, design and verification of system models with corresponding levels of abstraction
The implementation of a standardised approach to architecture definition using UML, with the option of passing on the models via standardised, tool-independent formats such as XMI.
Features
Comprehensive UML profiles support UPDM 1.0, 1.5 and MODAF DoDAF 1.2*
A visual, clickable framework interface for UPDM model hierarchies
UPDM model pattern templates with contextualised user guidance to increase productivity
Model validation to ensure consistency and correctness
Simple navigation between architecture diagrams using customised model views
Profiles that enable editing in list form as well as in cross-tabular form
A detailed sample model
