A visual description of which application functions an application contains in a cluster on application modules and application interfaces.

Purpose

The AM-view is used to provide an overall image of the functionality in a specific physical system. The AM-view usually consists of the complete series of application functions for a specific system.

Way of Working

  1. Choose a specific application.
  2. Identify the included modules and interfaces (From AD).
  3. Identify the key information units that are handled in the application
  4. Identify which process components use the application/application module.
  5. Define application functions (5-8 functions) per application module. Tips: Name them after the most important process components or ’’To handle X’’ where the X is information unit.
