DESCRIPTION:
Each EIRA© view has EIRA© Architecture Building Blocks
The EIRA© has EIRA© Viewpoints that conform to EIRA© Views
An EIRA© Architecture Building Block is modelled as a specialisation of a TOGAF® Architecture Building Block
A Public Service Agent is an EIRA Architecture Building Block that represents a participant involved in the delivery or consumption of a public service. Public Service Agents are citizens, businesses, organisations, or systems.
A Public Service Component is a structural EIRA© Architecture Building Block, i.e. an entity which can perform behaviour (active structure) or on which behaviour is performed (passive structure)
A Key Interoperability Enabler is an EIRA© Architecture Building Block, which is necessary to enable the efficient and effective delivery of public services across administrations;
An EIRA© Architecture Building Block has interoperability requirements. An Interoperability Requirement is a statement of an interoperable need that must be realised by a system. Interoperability Requirements can be formulated for all the EIF interoperability levels: Legal Interoperability
Requirements, Organisational Interoperability Requirements, Semantic Interoperability Requirements, and Technical Interoperability Requirements.
Interoperability requirements are grouped in Interoperability Aspects. An Interoperability Aspect is an externally observable characteristic or a set of characteristics to be provided/supported by the solution that fulfils partially or internally a stakeholder interoperability need.
An Interoperability Specification is a document containing agreed normative statements for solution building blocks used in an information exchange context. It can refer to existing standards or specifications. An Interoperability Specification realises an Interoperability Requirement.
An EIRA© Solution Building Block is a realisation of an EIRA© Architecture Building Block and a specialization of a TOGAF® Solution Building Block
A Solution consists of EIRA© Solution Building Blocks and TOGAF® Solution Building Blocks
