The purpose of this volume is to present a framework for incorporating architecture based DOTMLPF assessments into the JCIDS and DoD acquisition processes. It presents a recommended set of assessments across the seven domains, describing the information and data needed to conduct each assessment, the standard architecture products that may contain the required information and data, the expected output of the assessment, and the general nature of the assessment (i.e., Objective or Subjective). The presentation is not meant to be inclusive of all potential DOTMLPF or architecture related assessments that may be performed as a part of the JCIDS process. Rather, it is meant to generate discussion and thought, leading to further refinement and development of the ideas and concepts presented.
The common approach to creating enterprise architectures is the development of a set of formal, formatted and standardized architecture products. Taken together, the products provide a full description of the enterprise. This volume focuses on a data-centric alternative to the commonly used product centric approach. As the name implies, the data-centric approach to architecture development centers around defining an enterprise by defining data elements that describe the components and characteristics of the enterprise. These data elements can be grouped into seven different information categories: organizations and organizational nodes; systems and system nodes; information and data; interrelationships (including interfaces and information exchanges); operational concepts; missions, functions, processes, tasks, and activities; and rules.
Janis Birkeland presents the innovative new paradigm of 'Positive Development' in which the built environment provides greater life quality, health, amenity and safety for all without sacrificing resources or money. With a different form of design, development itself can become a 'sustainability solution'. A cornerstone of this new paradigm is the eco-retrofitting of the vast urban fabric we already inhabit. The author presents a revolutionary new tool called SmartMode to achieve this end. This book challenges everyone working in or studying the areas of sustainable development, planning, architecture or the built environment to rethink their current ideas and practices.
The current Symbian Press list focuses very much on the small scale features of Symbian OS in a programming context. The Architecture Sourcebook is different. It's not a how-to book, it's a 'what and why' book. And because it names names as it unwinds the design decisions which have shaped the OS, it is also a 'who' book. It will show where the OS came from, how it has evolved to be what it is, and provide a simple model for understanding what it is, how it is put together, and how to interface to it and work with it. It will also show why design decision were made, and will bring those decisions to life in the words of Symbian's key architects and developers, giving an insider feel to the book as it weaves the "inside story" around the architectural presentation. The book will describe the OS architecture in terms of the Symbian system model. It will show how the model breaks down the system into parts, what role the parts play in the system, how the parts are architected, what motivates their design, and how the design has evolved through the different releases of the system. Key system concepts will be described; design patterns will be explored and related to those from other operating systems. The unique features of Symbian OS will be highlighted and their motivation and evolution traced and described. The book will include a substantial reference section itemising the OS and its toolkit at component level and providing a reference entry for each component.
