Performer

Performer is the person or organization that performs an Activity. There are several kinds of performers, all of which inherit their property set and behavior from Performer, as shown below:

•Person

•Organization

•Service

•ServiceInterface

•System

•Interface (Port)

The DoDAF 2 metamodel (DM2) for Performer is implemented as shown below:

This graphic is described in the surrounding text.

Performer can be modeled on the following diagram types in DoDAF 2:

•OV-01 High Level Operational Concept diagrams

•OV-02 Operational Resource Flow Description and Alternative diagrams (DoDAF 2): You can draw Performers and Resource Flows between them.

•OV-02 Operational Resource Flow alternative diagrams: You specify the Activity or Activities that a Performer performs through the ActivityPerformedbyPerformer relationship on the OV-02 Alternative Diagram.

•OV-04 Organizational Relationships Chart diagrams (DoDAF 2)

•OV-05b Operational Activity Model diagrams (DoDAF 2)

•SV-1 System Interface Description diagrams (DoDAF 2)

•SV-2 Systems Resource Flow Description diagrams (DoDAF 2)

Organization

Organization is specified in the Performer section of the DoDAF 2 specification.

Organization is drawn on the following diagram types:

•OV-04 Organizational Relationships Chart diagrams (DoDAF 2): You typically draw the hierarchy of the Organization on this diagram.

•OV-01 High Level Operational Concept diagrams: Organization can be drawn on this diagram as a type of Performer.

•CV-01 Vision diagrams (DoDAF 2): Organization can be drawn on this diagram as a type of Performer.

•OV-02 Operational Resource Flow Description and Alternative diagrams (DoDAF 2) and OV-02 Operational Resource Flow Description and Alternative diagrams (DoDAF 2): Organization can be drawn on these diagrams as a type of Performer.

•SV-1 System Interface Description diagrams (DoDAF 2): Organization can be drawn on this diagram as a type of Performer.

•SV-2 Systems Resource Flow Description diagrams (DoDAF 2): Organization can be drawn on this diagram as a type of Performer.
