Cameo Enterprise Architecture

Provide Program Manager accountability including the enablement of net-centric processes and architectures, flexibility and responsiveness.
 

• Meet standards and easily follow guidance
• Understand risk/cost
• Gaps are identified and eliminated

No Magic's MagicDraw solution greatly facilitates the efficient and effective deployment of IT resources. The tool automates and assists the process of resource allocation ensuring project critical project success.

• Use "what-if" scenarios to confirm and calculate project success criteria
• Quickly identify under or over utilized resources
• Are the resources deployed in a project?
• Ensure that resources are allocated to meet specific project goals

Metrics lead to program success. Employing MagicDraw in UAF promotes significant improvement in processes, program and people efficiencies as well as shorter cycle times. Rapidly see and identify data relationships and critical paths.

• Align your operational metrics with your system metrics
• Use "what-if" scenarios to optimize system and operational parameters
• Use metrics to drive system design and operations
• Trace metrics back to systems that fulfill them

Efficiency - Benefit from improved speed to deploy, optimized resource allocation, improved collaboration and reduced overall cycle times. Teams will find it easier to take the abstract and make it meaningful, and achieve net-centric results.

• Be efficient and collaborative
• Easily and quickly pass along knowledge and training to others
• Achieve efficiencies because guidance has been followed

Configuration Management*

• Teamwork Cloud works much like the source code version control system.
  • Every user may instantly obtain the newest version of the model; everybody is allowed to work in parallel on its own part.
  • All designs are stored in a single place, there are no more files that are scattered around in the network; changes can be introduced orderly and without conflicts.
  • Module level versioning control.
• Merge Plugin enabling copying changes between different project versions
• Visual model differencing

Security*

• Different people in the project may have different access levels to the projects stored in the Teamwork Cloud repository
• Different users may have different permissions on the data that is located in the teamwork cloud
• Native user support in Teamwork Cloud integrated with Subversion/ClearCase and/or LDAP

Interoperability*

• CATIA No Magic is official members of the OMG Model Interchange Working Group (MIWG) and UML Diagram Interchange (UMLDI) Group both formed to demonstrate and facilitate interoperability between UML®-based modeling tools. The groups’ initial focus is on model and diagrams interchange between UML®, OMG SysML™, and Unified Profile for DoDAF and MODAF (UPDM) -capable tools. Groups comprise end users, tool vendors and experts in the UML and XMI® standards.
• Cameo DataHub - data bridge enabling the import/export, automatic synchronization and creation of references between CATIA No Magic products Cameo™ Requirements+, MagicDraw and the other vendors tools such as Rational® DOORS®, Rational® RequisitePro®, and CSV files. Support for other tools/formats/repositories to be forthcoming.
• Sparx Systems Enterprise Architect Import plugin

Requirements Management

• SysML Requirements Model
• Support for SysML Requirements diagram
• Requirements Traceability. Ability to manage traces between requirements and satisfying elements, requirements and test cases, requirements and refining elements and requirements of different levels of abstraction.
• Predefined satisfy requirement and verify requirement matrices
• Requirements tabular representation view
• Automated Requirements numbering; requirement numbers active uniqueness check
• Requirements Versioning control
• Custom schemes support for requirements versioning and prioritization

Traceability / Build in Functions for Gap Analysis

• Traceability. Traceability between different levels of abstraction which makes it possible to find more specific and realizing elements, usually not from the same view. This allows for handy specification and realization discovery, and navigation. Predefined traceability suites are customizable to customers’ needs.
• The Dependency Matrix
• Predefined editable matrices for UAF/DoDAF/MODAF/NAF:
  • Implementation Matrix for OV-SV gap analysis
  • Operational Activity to Capability Mapping matrix
  • Organizational resource responsibility for Projects matrix
  • Capability to Service Mapping matrix
  • Resource Interactions Matrix
  • Function to Operational Activity Traceability Matrix
  • Operational Activity to Systems Traceability Matrix
• Predefined editable matrices for SysML:
  • Allocation matrix
  • Satisfy Requirement and Verify requirement matrices
• Find Usages/Find Dependencies
• The Relation Map
• Predefined Relation Maps for UAF/DoDAF/MODAF:
  • Capability Structural Map
  • Capability Behavioral Map
  • Implementation Map
  • Operational Activity Implementation Map
  • Operational Activity Decomposition Map
  • Organization Structure Map
  • System Resource Map
  • Variant Map
• Impact Analysis maps:
  • Operational Performer Impact Analysis Map
  • Operational Role Impact Analysis Map
  • Resource Impact Analysis Map
  • Resource Role Impact Analysis Map
• Predefined Metric suites for coverage analysis:
  • Capability Metric suites
  • Operational Performer Metric Suites
  • Operational Activity Metric Suites
  • Project Metric Suites
  • Organizational Resources Metric Suites
  • Function Metric Suites
  • Requirement Coverage Metric Suites
• Predefined Relation Maps for SysML:
  • Activity Decomposition Map
  • Instance Map
  • Requirement Containment Map
  • Requirement Derivation Map

• Structure Decomposition Map

Reports / Direct Web Publishing

• Report Wizard with the customizable WYSIWYG reports is built on top of the Velocity Engine (Open Source Templates engine). The type of template files that the Report Wizard supports: normal text, RTF, HTML, Spreadsheet template (need to be saved as HTML format), XML template (DocBook or FO), Microsoft Word and Excel 2007 files.
• Cameo Collaborator is a web-based product designed to present models in a simplified form for stakeholders, sponsors, customers, and engineering teams. Its innovative capability - graphical comments, significantly improves team collaboration by involving even non-technical team members in the model review process.

Build in controls for consistency and quality models

• Validation checks model for correctness and completeness, displays errors in the model or in a diagram/table and suggests solutions. The Active validation allows this functionality instantly.
• Predefined Validation suites are provided for UML, SysML, SoaML, UAF models.

Multilingual models

• Unicode support for models allows multilingual models to be build.
• Spell Checker. Open Office dictionaries of 98 languages are supported.
• Different predefined and unlimited numbers of custom languages of application GUI are supported: English, French, German, Japanese, Russian, and Thai interfaces. On demand translation to any other language can be implemented.
