The UML Profile for MARTE: Modeling and Analysis of Real-Time and Embedded Systems | www.omgwiki.org/marte BPMN Method and Style: An Example - Business Process Watch I’m always prattling on about “method and style” in BPMN modeling, and most folks probably don’t know what I’m talking about. My goal is maximizing shared understanding of the BPMN diagram, so it is clear and complete to anyone looking at it, even if the reader is unfamiliar with the process or the modeler’s terminology. That requires going beyond the requirements spelled out in the BPMN spec to a set of modeling conventions aimed at reducing the need for prior familiarity with the process in order to understand the diagram. Part of the backlash against BPMN 2.0, and I am very aware of it, is related to the fact that the narrative of the specification, all 500+ pages of it, utterly fails as a “teaching” document. One of the basic principles is that how the process starts and its possible end states should be obvious from the diagram itself. How does the process end? In M&S, there are really two distinct end states of this process: the book is checked out, or the request is canceled.

Activity Diagram - Activity Diagram Symbols, Examples, and More What is an Activity Diagram? An activity diagram visually presents a series of actions or flow of control in a system similar to a flowchart or a data flow diagram. Activity diagrams are often used in business process modeling. They can also describe the steps in a use case diagram. Activities modeled can be sequential and concurrent. In both cases an activity diagram will have a beginning (an initial state) and an end (a final state). In between there are ways to depict activities, flows, decisions, guards, merge and time events and more. Basic Activity Diagram Notations and Symbols Initial State or Start Point A small filled circle followed by an arrow represents the initial action state or the start point for any activity diagram. Activity or Action State An action state represents the non-interruptible action of objects. Action Flow Action flows, also called edges and paths, illustrate the transitions from one action state to another. Object Flow Decisions and Branching Guards Time Event

MIPI™ MPHY - An introduction Design And Reuse Search IP IP Based SoC News Industry Articles Blogs Videos Login Join Latest Articles Most Popular Articles Browse Articles by Category SoC News Alerts Twitter MIPI™ MPHY - An introduction With the explosion of mobile platform devices, and the increased functionality in each of these devices, data rates between peripherals have seen exponential growth. The Application processor which processes this data and communicates with the various functions needs a high bandwidth pipe to handle the increased data throughput requirements. Recognizing this, the MIPI alliance has been defining standards for these serial interfaces. The most successful usage of the DPHY has been in the Camera to Application Processor (CSI) and Application processor to Display (DSI) pipes. As the bandwidth requirement increases, multiple D-PHY lanes would be required which increases the system cost. Apart from the HS mode, the MPHY also defines 2 types of mutually exclusive Low Speed modes. HS Gear RATE A (MHz)

Australian Business Excellence Framework The Australian Business Excellence Framework (ABEF) is an integrated leadership and management system that describes the elements essential to organisations sustaining high levels of performance. It can be used to assess and improve any aspect of an organisation, including leadership, strategy and planning, people, information and knowledge, safety, service delivery, product quality and bottom-line results. The ABEF provides organisations with assurance of their sustainable performance and is Australia’s preferred framework for leadership and governance. The ABEF is proven to bring about powerful changes in organisational performance and culture. Organisations using the ABEF are able to develop business resilience and an integrated focus on sustainable performance. Additionally, the ABEF provides an umbrella under which a number of business initiatives can be integrated to form one coherent, cohesive organisational systems model. Put simply, the ABEF:

UML activity diagrams are UML behavior diagrams which show flow of control or object flow with emphasis on the sequence and conditions of the flow. Activity diagram is UML behavior diagram which shows flow of control or object flow with emphasis on the sequence and conditions of the flow. The actions coordinated by activity models can be initiated because other actions finish executing, because objects and data become available, or because some events external to the flow occur. The following nodes and edges are typically drawn on UML activity diagrams: activity, partition, action, object, control, activity edge. You can find some activity diagram examples here: Activity Activity is a parameterized behavior represented as coordinated flow of actions. The flow of execution is modeled as activity nodes connected by activity edges. Activity contains activity nodes which could be: Activities may contain actions of various kinds: There are actions that invoke activities - either directly using call behavior action or indirectly with call operation action.
