• UPDM 3 (UAF 1.0 beta) to UAF 1.1. Note, that there is no direct migration in this case. Learn more about the migration process >>

Diagrams and Tables

• New Actual Enterprise Phases Gantt Chart shows how actual enterprise phases change over time. Learn more >>
• New Date and Time Summary Table depict all dates and times specified in the ISO8601 date-time format. Learn more >>
• New Personnel Forecast, Resources Forecast, and Standards Roadmap diagrams are implemented improving the way they are created and used. The Personnel Forecast, Resources Forecast, and Standards Roadmap diagrams created with earlier versions of the modeling tool will be marked as deprecated and will be available only for review purposes.
• The Deployment diagram has been enhanced. The Strategic Deployment table is renamed to the Strategic Actual Deployment table and you can now create it using an Actual Resources Deployment Creation Wizard. Moreover, the Deployment Milestones wizard is renamed to Actual Resources Deployment Wizard and enhanced. (https://jira.nomagic.com/browse/DT-4033, https://jira.nomagic.com/browse/DT-3864)
• A technology preview of the Hierarchical Measurements table. Please note, that if you open a project created with earlier versions, the Measurement tables of those projects will be empty. However, you can create them anew.

Usability Improvements

• The new Personnel Gantt Chart property Display Actual Persons in Different Lines was implemented. Now you can choose to see each Actual Person in separate lines.

• In the Gantt chart Options area, you can choose to mark the needed period of time. One of the following Marking Modes are available:

  • None. Nothing will be marked.
  • Period of Time. Choose to mark a period of time. For this mode, you can select the Start and End dates to be marked.
  • Period of Actual Enterprise Phase. Choose to mark a period of the Actual Enterprise Phase. The time frame will be marked according to the Start and End dates set for the selected Actual Enterprise Phase.
• The Create Association on Part Creation project option is set to True. This means, that when you create parts in the Part compartment of the Resource and Operational performers, the appropriate association is also created in the model.

• When the old project (UAF 1.0 or UPDM2) is opened with the latest version (UAF plugin), stereotypes for nonDSL'ed associations should be applied:

  • when the association is between OperationalAgent, the <<OperationalAssociation>> stereotype is applied. 
  • when the association is between ResourcePerformer, the <<ResourceAssociation>> stereotype is applied.  
• Operational Signal/Resources Signal now applies automatically for the DSL'ed signal.

Performance Improvements

• Now all the matrices will be started to build after the row and column scope is selected (https://jira.nomagic.com/browse/UPDM-11385)

Traceability Improvements
