SysFEAT - Systemic Framework for Enterprise Architecture & Transformation

CLASS OF CLASS OF INDIVIDUAL - Information Entity

Description

Abstract Concept

An Information Entity is an Information Asset that is not fundamentally defined by its attributes, but rather by its continuity.

An Information Entity evolves over time and has states.

For instance a person is an Information Entity. Employe is a state of a person.

An Information Entity has relationships to other Information Entitys and can have Information Propertys.

Conceptualization Levels of Information Entity: an Information Entity is either a Conceptual Entity or a Data Entity

Functional Domain: Information Assets

The Information Assets domain describes top level concepts used to describe information.

Relationship	Cardinality	Target Entity	Source Entity	Description
Specialized Information Entity	[*..0]	Information Entity	Information Entity	Generalization relationship between a sub-Information Entity and its super-Information Entity.
Qualifying Information Property	[*..0]	Information Property	Information Entity
Information Relationship	[*..0]	Information Entity	Information Entity	An Information Relationship is a characteristic of an Information Entity that represents a relationships to other Information Entity(ies).
Categorization	[*..0]	Category	Class of Bounded Individual	Categorization is a Classification of a Class of Bounded Individual by a Family of Class called Category.
Qualification	[*..0]	Class of Property	Class of Bounded Individual	A Specialization from a Class of Bounded Individual to a Class of Property that asserts all members of the Class of Bounded Individual have the Class of Property.
Start Type	[*..0]	Temporal Bounding Type	Class of Bounded Individual
End Type	[*..0]	Temporal Bounding Type	Class of Bounded Individual
Temporal Sequencing Type	[*..0]	Temporal Bounding Type	Class of Bounded Individual
Aggregate Specialization	[*..0]	Class of Bounded Individual	Class of Bounded Individual	An Aggregate Specialization is a Specialization that is refied as an Unbounded Member of a Class of Bounded Individual.Example:. The enforcement of a rule in a process (Rule Enforcement) is a refied Specialization.
Realized Information Asset	[*..0]	Information Asset	Information Asset
Data Category	[*..0]	Data Category	Information Asset	Classification of an Information Asset as belonging to a Data Category.
Information Classification	[*..0]	Data Category	Information Asset	Classification of an Information Asset by a Data Category.
Data Risk	[*..0]	Data Risk Type	Information Asset	A Data Risk is Risk that refers to the potential for loss resulting from inadequate structure and usage of an Information Asset.
Realized Functional Asset	[*..0]	Functional Asset	Functional Asset	A kind of specialization between an implementing Functional Asset and its abstract Realized Functional Asset.Realization relationships are the foundation to establish the mapping between Functional Assets that belong to different Conceptualization Levels.
Policy Conformance	[*..0]	Policy	Functional Asset	A Policy Conformance is the conformity requirement that applies a Functional Asset.
Hierarchical Member	[*..0]	Building Block	Aggregate Block	A Hierarchical Member is an Aggregate Member that is also a Block Lexical Scope for the Building Block it aggregates: it relates its aggregated block by nesting (see Nesting Relationship).Hierarchical Members are used to build hierarchical structures of Building Blocks, in constrast to Block Members which are used to build network structures of Building Blocks.
Block Member	[*..0]	Building Block	Aggregate Block	A Block Member is an Aggregate Member that aggregates its releated Building Block by reference (see Referencing Relationship).Block Members are used to build network structures of Building Blocks while Hierarchical Members are used to build hierarchical structures of Building Blocks.
