Describes concepts used to describe exchanged items in the SAF Conceptual Domain (Functional and Logical) and related concepts
| Concept | Documentation |
|---|---|
| Conceptual Exchange Type | Specification for any type of conceptual item (energy, material, information, etc.) to be exchanged on Conceptual (Functional Architecture and Logical Architecture) Level. The Conceptual Exchange Type is agnostic to any realization on Physical Level. |
| typing | Specifies the fact that a Conceptual Exchange Type defines the type of a Logical Item Exchange. |
| typing | Specifies the fact that a Conceptual Exchange Type defines the type of a Conceptual Interaction Point Property. |
| beeing in | Specifies that a Conceptual Exchange Type can have certain states. Note: Of course an item is in only one distinct state at a certain time. The multiplicity means that an Item can have a set of possible states, and a state can be used to specify possible States for several Conceptual Exchange Types. |
| realizing | Specifies the fact that a Conceptual Exchange Type is realized by Physical Exchange Types. |
| System State | Describes a state (or mode) of something on system level that can have distinct states. |
| typing | Specifies the fact that a Conceptual Exchange Type defines the type of a Function Parameter. |
| General Function Usage Exchange Point | Exchange point of functional usage. |
| Physical Exchange Type | Specification for any kind of physical item (energy, material, information, etc.) to be exchanged on Physical Level. This is the realization of the specification made by System Domain Kinds. |
| Conceptual Item Exchange | Specifies the exchange that is to take place on a connection of two interaction points on Conceptual Level. |
| Conceptual Interaction Point Property | Specifies a detail of an interaction point on Logical Level. |
| Operational Exchange Type | Specifies the type of Operational Item Exchange between Operational Context Roles or Operational Processes. |
| deriving from | Specifies the fact that a Conceptual Exchange Type on system level is derived from an Operational Exchange Type. |
