Purpose
The Operational Context Interaction Viewpoint describes single threads of interaction between Operational Performers in an Operational Context on an operational domain level. Note: The Operational Interaction Viewpoint may refine an Operational Story.
Applicability
The Operational Interaction Viewpoint supports the “Business or Mission Analysis Process” and the “Stakeholder Needs and Requirements Definition Process” activities of the INCOSE SYSTEMS ENGINEERING HANDBOOK 2023 [§ 2.3.5.1 § 2.3.5.2] and contributes to the definition of operational scenarios and identification of interface boundaries and interfacing systems.
