Figures

Figure 1: The FRAM “Snowflake” A function can be described by the following attributes: • Input (I): that which the function processes or transforms, or that which starts the function. • Output (O): that which is the result of the function, either an entity or a state change. • Preconditions (P): conditions that must be exist before a function can be executed. • Resources (R): that which the function needs, or consumes, to produce the output.
