Benefits of ProcessWorks! Version 6.1
• Exports the semantics of IDEF0 to Microsoft Visio.
• Imports OV-5 from DARS and generates IDEF0 Diagrams.
• Generates Use Case Diagrams automatically.
• Provides enhanced properties dialogue which generates Rummler-Brache Swim Lane diagrams automatically in Visio along with Time, Cost and Quality properties.
• Provides the ability to build DoDAF work products OV-2, OV-4, OV-5, OV-6A, OV-7, SV-4, AV-2 and SV-11.
There are too many new features in ProcessWorks! V.6.1 to include here. We will focus on the Wizdom ProcessWorks! easy as 1, 2, 3 approach to building the essential DoDAF products.
ProcessWorks! enforces IDEF0 standards. ProcessWorks! uses either drag and drop features or textual lists to generate graphical models compliant with FIPS Publication 183. In addition, ProcessWorks! has embedded analysis tools and reports for Activity Based Costing and time line analysis, and an integrated Glossary with import and export of Glossary terms.
IN THE HARD COPY THERE IS A PICTURE HERE OF OV-5 AND THE WIZDOM 1, 2, 3 PROCESS DESCRIBED BELOW.
Building complete and compliant DoDAF products is as easy as 1, 2, 3 with Wizdom ProcessWorks! 6.1
1. Build the IDEF0 Activity model (OV-5) complete with the Integrated Glossary (AV-2). Use the Integrated Text Diagram to build the Executive Summary of Your Architecture -- the AV-1. It stays automatically linked to the OV-5 as does the AV-2.
2. Generate a Use Case Diagram with a simple mouse click.
3. As the IDEF0 diagram is built ProcessWorks! knows the primary inputs and outputs. At a mouse click, ProcessWorks! uses this to generate an activity model in the Rummler-Brache swim lane format in Visio. Here additional data can be added. If the user has added IER properties, to the IDEF0 diagram they are also automatically migrated to the Visio activity model.
IDEF0 Diagram at the A0 level. Note how all FIPS 183 rules are obeyed.
AV-1 is displayed as an IDEF0 text diagram with the built in Template.
IN THE HARD COPY THERE IS A PICTURE HERE OF THE WIZDOM AV-1 TEMPLATE.
AV-2 is maintained in ProcessWorks! for all DoDAF products.
