Modeling business actions
Abstract
The chapter discusses the IFML concept of Action, which describes a black-box component that embodies arbitrary business logic triggered from the interface. Actions can be connected to interface elements with navigation and data flows to enable parameter passing. The chapter illustrates several design patterns involving actions, mostly for updating the objects and associations of the domain model. In addition, system events and notification are exemplified.
