ePC Model Explorer - ARIS report (Home)

ePC Model Explorer uses ARIS script to generate input data for analysis.

Report requires that all ARIS diagrams will be organized under VAD diagram. ARIS script performs the following tasks:

1. Writes information about diagram and it's objects

2. Writes information about linked diagrams

3. Saves images of the diagram as JPEG (or WMF) files in corresponding directory

ARIS Script structure

1. Main - prepares variables and performs main loop on selected models

2. write_model - writes model information
   - image
   - model attributes
   - calls write_object to write object attributes

3. write_object - writes object attributes and loads decomposition diagram for write_model

4. write_link - register link between objects

5. write_decomposition - register decomposition link
