Q

For the equivalent uniform annual cost (EUAC), what are the variable NPV, I, n, and k?

A
NPV = net present value
i = discount rate, presumed 4%
n = service life of rehab and maintenance
k = year that maintenance will be performed.

Q

The Zachman framework

A
  • For enterprise architecture in a organisation
  • Logical structure
  • Classifying and organising models or descriptive representations of an enterprise.
  • Derived from analogous structures in architecture
  • Also helps in managing enterprise change.

Q

System architecture patterns - interfaced systems?

A

Simply connected systems or subsystems that can exchange information across the common boundary which they share.
Systems share data but no processes.

Q

System architecture patterns - interoperable systems?

A

Provide and accept services from the other systems and use the services exchanged to enable them to operate effectively together.
systems share limited processes and data.

Q

System architecture patterns - integrated systems?

A

Tightly coupled interconnection of different, highly specialised devices, systems or subsystems, into a broader system providing complex functions which require close interactions between its components.
Systems share many processes and data.

Q

Conceptual data model? (phase 1)

A

High level (conceptual data model) definition of the main model entities and relationships between them.

17
Q

Logical Data Model? (phase 2)

A

More detailed design. Intermediary between conceptual and physical design.
Includes draft of the data dictionary and CRUD (create, read, update and delete) matrices.

18
Q

Physical data model

A

Specifics that facilitate coding within a specific database management system (DBMS). (ie internal storage structures, access paths, file organisations).

19
Q

Key components to complex systems?

A

Autonomous agents
Undefined values
Non linearity

20
Q

What are autonomous agents?

A

Components that have their own freedom to govern themselves and/or control their own affairs.
ie stakeholders in the projects.

21
Q

What are undefined values?

A
  • known values - uncertainties
  • know - underfined values
  • unknown - underfined values (black swan event)
22
Q

What is non linearity?

A
  • most relationships are dynamic, non linear and hard to define.
23
Q

Key components to define a complex system?

A
  • System boundaries (scope)
  • Influencing factors (in and out pressures)
  • Nodes (stages in lifecycle)
  • Links (between nodes)
  • Feedback loops
24
Q

What is the data needed for an AM plan?

A
  • Investment costs over life of project
  • Operational costs
  • Benefits
  • Discount rate
  • Risk cost
25
Q

What are the system data and functional requirements?

A
  • Business drivers
  • Information needs
  • User requirements
  • Consistency w/ business processes and procedures
  • Functional requirements
  • Data and system inputs
  • System integration requirements
