HTML Menu Layout

Purpose: The purpose of the HTML Menu Layout is to contain information of the menu and the behavior of the menu on the web. A new template for this purpose has been created. Please see HTML Mega Menu for information on how to change the setup of your web platform menu layout.

Interaction Overview Diagram

Purpose: The purpose of the Interaction Overview Diagram is to visualize a sequence of activities and deconstruct a complex scenario that would otherwise require multiple ‘if-then-else paths’ to be illustrated as a single sequence diagram.

Core concerns: The Interaction Overview Diagram is a Behavioral UML model. The template enables you to model Call Behavior Actions, Decision Nodes, Merge Nodes, Initial Nodes, Activity Final Nodes, Fork Nodes, Join Nodes, Duration Constraints, and Annotations. These elements can then be connected by Control Flows.

Below, you can see an example of an Interaction Overview Diagram for a sd System Authentication:

Relation to other templates: The Interaction Overview Diagram is part of the UML templates QualiWare supports along with the Activity Diagram, Communication Diagram, Deployment Diagram, Class Diagram, Composite Structure Diagram, State Diagram, Package Diagram, Component Diagram, Sequence Diagram, Use case diagram, Timing Diagram, Composite structure Diagram

Properties and metadata: The Interaction Overview Diagram template ­­­­can for example retain the following information:

  • A description of the diagram
  • Audits (auto generated information regarding its current state and access rights)
  • Extensions (Stereotypes, Constraints and Tagged values)
  • Associated documents, diagrams and other objects
  • Inherent Risk detailing risk considerations
  • Governance information detailing information about the published diagram and who has been involved in the approval of the diagram

The above picture shows the properties dialogue window for the Interaction Overview Diagram template, where you can view and edit the Diagram’s properties in QualiWare Lifecycle Manager.

Menu Layout

Purpose: The Purpose of the Menu Layout template is to provide the menu structure for the system developed in the Dialog Model.

Core concerns: The Menu Layout template enables you to model Menu Items which can be connected by containing each other – as is the case with the HTML Mega Menu template.

Relation to other templates: The Menu Layout is a QualiWare system template and is related to the Dialog Model, Dialog Layout, Report Layout and Help Model.

Properties and metadata: The Menu Layout template ­­­­can for example retain the following information:

  • A description of the diagram
  • Audits (auto generated information regarding its current state and access rights)
  • Associated documents, diagrams and other objects
  • Inherent Risk detailing risk considerations
  • Governance information detailing information about the published diagram and who has been involved in the approval of the Menu Layout

The above picture shows the properties dialogue window for the Menu Layout template, where you can view and edit the template’s properties in QualiWare Lifecycle Manager.

Profile Diagram

Purpose: The purpose of the Profile Diagram is to operate at the metamodel level to show stereotypes as classes, and profiles as packages.

Core concerns: The Profile Diagram enables you to model Profiles, Stereotypes, Classes, Interfaces, Enumerations, and Annotations. These elements can be connected by Generalizations, Associations, Profile Applications, Package Imports, Element Imports or Containments.

Below, you can see an example of a Profile Diagram for Service Data for a message:

Relation to other templates: The Profile Diagram is part of the UML templates QualiWare supports along with the Activity Diagram, Communication Diagram, Deployment Diagram, Class Diagram, Composite Structure Diagram, State Diagram, Package Diagram, Component Diagram, Sequence Diagram, Use case diagram, Timing Diagram, Composite structure Diagram, Object Diagram and Interaction overview diagram

Properties and metadata: The Profile Diagram template ­­­­can for example retain the following information:

  • A description of the diagram
  • Link to the owner of the diagram
  • Link to the one responsible for the diagram
  • Extensions (Stereo types, Constraints and Tagged values)
  • Audits (auto generated information regarding its current state and access rights)
  • Associated documents, diagrams and other objects
  • Inherent Risk detailing risk considerations
  • Governance information detailing information about the published diagram and who has been involved in the approval of the diagram

Structure Chart

Purpose: The purpose of the Structure Chart is to show the physical design of a program. A subroutine or a module.

Core concerns: The Structure Chart template enables you to model Modules and Data Stores. These elements can then be linked by Module Parameters and Connections. The Structure Chart is built as a hierarchy of modules calling each other. The connections are Parameters that are transferred through these calls.

Below, you can see an example of a Structure Chart, where the data flows are illustrated by arrows:

Relation to other templates: The Structure Chart is part of the information domain. As such it is related to, for example, the Data Flow Diagram, Communication Diagram, Data Mapping Diagram, Data Model Diagram, and the Relational Diagram.

Properties and metadata: The Structure Chart template ­­­­can for example retain the following information:

  • A description of the diagram
  • Link to the owner of the Chart
  • Link to the one responsible for the Chart
  • Audits (auto generated information regarding its current state and access rights)
  • Associated documents, diagrams and other objects
  • Inherent Risk detailing risk considerations
  • Governance information detailing information about the published diagram and who has been involved in the approval of the Chart
