Title
SVp-05 - Solution Function to Concept Activity Mapping Viewpoint
Version
5
Date
3rd February 2011
Overview
The SVp-05 Solution Function to Concept Activity Mapping Viewpoint is part of the TRAK Solution Perspective and one of the 21 TRAK Architecture Viewpoints.
The SVp-05 provides the means to map functions from parts of the solution to the implementation-free concept activities. In doing so it provides a) justification for the solution functions b) ensures that there is nothing behavioural in the concept perspective that isn’t addressed within the solution and c) ensures that there is no unwanted functionality in the solution.
The SVp-05 architecture viewpoint is the specification for the TRAK::SV-05 Solution Function to Concept Activity Mapping architecture view.

Concerns Addressed
Do the solution functions meet all of the concept activities? Is there unwanted solution functionality?

Description
Maps the solution functions (SV-04) back up to the concept activities (defined in the CV-05).

Mandatory Metamodel Tuples
Defining the Solution Function
- System performs Function
- Physical performs Function
- Software performs Function
- Organisation performs Function
- Job performs Function
- Role performs Function
- Function has part Function
Defining the Concept Activity
- Node conducts Concept Activity
- Concept Activity has part Concept Activity
Mapping the Solution to the Concept
- Function realises Concept Activity
Covered by TRAK IPR and licenses
Optional Metamodel Tuples
Context - Concept Implementation
- Resource realises Node
where Resource = System, Physical, Software, Organisation, Job or Role
Universal:
- Concern about Architecture Description Element
- Document traces to Architecture Description Element
- Requirement traces to Architecture Description Element
- Standard governs Architecture Description Element
If any of these optional metamodel elements are added then the appropriate TRAK Master Architecture View must be provided.

Well-Formedness
A SV-05 view shall contain:
- at least one Resource (the subject of the view)
- every Resource must be connected to at least one Function
- at least one Node
- every Node must be connected to at least one Concept Activity
- every Concept Activity must be connected to at least one Function, if not then a Concern *
- every Function must be connected to at least one Concept Activity, if not then a Concern *
* Note: The purpose of the viewpoint is to identify unmapped functions and unmatched concept activities. Unmapped items are to be flagged by connecting to a Concern identifying this concern and reported on in the MV-02. As items are mapped on this view they are disconnected from the Concern.

Examples
Views Needed to Construct
- SV-01 (specified by the SVp-01 Solution Structure Viewpoint) - master architecture view for Resource (Job, Physical, Organisation, Role, Software, System)
- SV-04 (specified by the SVp-04 Solution Function Viewpoint) - master architecture view for Function.
- CV-01 (specified by the CVp-01 Concept Need Viewpoint) - master architecture view for Need.
- CV-05 (specified by the CVp-05 Concept Activity Viewpoint) - master architecture view for Concept Activity.

The SV-01 is the source for the definition of the solution structure Resource. The SV-04 is the source for the definition of the functions of each of the solution structure elements Function. The CV-05 is the source definition of the logical activities Concept Activity that the solution is implementing or realising.
Consistency Rules
- Resource must appear in SV-01
- any Node must appear in CV-01
- every Node conducts Concept Activity must appear in CV-05
- every Resource performs Function must appear in SV-04
- every Resource-performs-Function-realises-Concept Activity must be consistent with Resource-realises-Node in SV-01
- Functional Realisation of Node.: IF {Node conducts Concept Activity (CV-05)} AND {Resource performs Function realises (same) Concept Activity (SV-04 + SV-05) } THEN {Resource realises Node} must be made on the SV-01.
