Hello All,
I'm new to ARIS (Designer) so I'm still learning the ropes. I've been doing a lot of Asset Management (value chain) modeling but I wanted to take a break and do something simple more towards my profession as a System Engineer.
I want to create a standard V diagram to show a lifecycle of a project. But I don't know what Model Type to use. (There are so many.)
Is there any recommendations?
Adam
Hello Adam,
I am well aware of the V-Model, a process model which covers the whole lifecycle of a product.But I am not aware of an vie diagram.
The V-Model was originally developed by IABG for the German Armed Forces, but has been widely adopted. The IEC/ISO 61508 and its derivatives as examples the IEC/ISO 50126 & IEC/ISO 50128 (aka CENELEC) for railway systems or the ISO 26262 for automotive systems use the V-Model as process model. And as ISO 26262 does, also ISO/IEC 33020:2015 (aka Automotive SPICE) is based on the V-Model.
OK 'nough history. As a process model the V-Model describes a process. Consequently I would use a process diagram to illustrate the V-Model. Taking the notations ARIS covers, these could be
- a value chain diagram,
- an EPC diagram or
- a BPMN diagram.
Best regards,
Carsten
Thanks for the input! "Vee" is just how some people write it and I wanted to be clear. But yes, a V-Model. I use it all the time.
Just for others reading this, I also got a seperate response (from the ARIS employee who is involved when we bought the product) where a Structuring model might be used.
