Description

The L5 Logical States view describes how operational nodes or activities respond to various events by changing state. The view represents the sets of events to which the architecture will respond (by taking an action to move to a new state) as a function of its current state. Each transition specifies an event and an action.

The L5 view can be used to describe the detailed sequencing of activities or work flow in the business process. The L5 is particularly useful for describing critical sequencing of behaviors and timing of operational activities that cannot be adequately described in L4 - Logical Activities.

Implementation

The L5 view can be represented using an UML State Machine diagram.
