Problem (Level 2)
A. Identication of the problem: To identify each process of the report generator.
B. Location of each problem in the topology: Step 3.
C. Questions: To help identify the main processes (COSMIC FFP denition) of
the report generator.
D. Result (or action): Each process is identied; moreover, to help in checking
the results of the a report generator. ese processes do not necessarily cor-
respond to the processes identied by the measurer for this particular case,
but the reference document serves as a reminder.
