Fit-for-Purpose Visualisation of Architecture to Support Defence Capability Decision-Making
Abstract
Making decisions across the whole portfolio of defence capability requires the integration of information about hundreds of projects and capabilities, from a number of different perspectives. Architectures have been used in the defence community for at least the last decade to address this complexity. However, traditional architecture views are often too complex for decision-makers to readily comprehend. The recently-released DoDAF 2.0 architecture framework promotes the concept of "fit-for-purpose" views to facilitate decision support from architectural models. The work described in this paper applies a UPDM-based architecture development approach to capture capability development information with an emphasis on developing a fit-for-purpose visualisation to support decision-making. This work includes the development of prototype visualisation software to facilitate decision-support from DoDAF 2.0 architectural models.
