The SV-10b is one of three models used to describe system functionality. It identifies responses of systems to events. There are two diagram types.

There are two diagram types:

Use to model System Function and System Data Flow from the SV-04b. Here is a sample:

This diagram has a Services view equivalent, named SvcV-10b Service Functions State Transition Description (DM2).

Use to model SV-04b information and SV-01 information.

This diagram has a Services view equivalent, named SvcV-10b Services State Transition Description (DM2).

A description of the diagram.

SV-10b diagrams that are peers of the current diagram. On the SV-10b System Function State Transition (DM2) the peers can be other SV-10b System Function State Transition diagrams. On the SV-10b System State Transition (DM2) diagram, the peers are other SV-10b System State Transition (DM2) diagrams.

As Is, To Be, or Transitional.

This description is the related Architectural Description definition (from the AV-01 diagram).

You can add the following symbols to the SV-10b System Function State Transition (DM2) diagrams:

A function that is done by a system. The function commonly refers to the automation of activities, data transformation, or information exchanges in IT systems. However, it also refers to the delivery of military capabilities.

Data that is passed between System Functions.

The diagram auto-generates the System Data Flows between System Functions based on the SV-04b. Adding or deleting lines on this diagram affects the SV-04b. You can hide relationship lines by right-clicking in the diagram white space and selecting Hide/Show State Transition (SV-10b DM2rx) Relationship Lines. The hidden lines reappear each time the diagram is opened.

You can add the following symbols to the SV-10b System State Transition (DM2) diagrams:

A functionally, physically, and (or) behaviorally related group of regularly interacting or interdependent elements.

Interfaces in and between equipment, subsystems, systems, an SoS, or other technology driven aspects of an enterprise.

Things that do activities such as service performers, systems, personnel, and organizations.

A specific real-world assemblage of people and other resources organized for an ongoing purpose.

A type of performer, usually acting in a Role.

Elements being exchanged between systems and the attributes of that exchange; a simplified representation of a pathway or network pattern.

The interaction between Activities and Performers. Activities are temporal and they results in the flow, or exchange, of objects such as information, data, materiel, and Performers.
