Tagging

Tagging

EDGY supports the expression of a complex interplay of Enterprise Elements with just 4 base elements, and their specialisation into 12 Facet Elements and Intersection Elements. Combining just a select subset is sufficient to map out and co-create enterprise configurations for typical challenges related to the facets.

There are cases where it makes sense to further differentiate an element used according to the specific challenge or context it is being used for. To support such a need, EDGY uses tags that can be added to an element and indicate additional information about it.

There are 3 ways to define and add a tag to any EDGY element:

• Types further specify the nature of an element by differentiating a set of defined subclasses, such as a Audio Content or Image Content.
• Attributes differentiate elements based on a set list of values, such as an Capability (outsourced) or Capability (in-house).
• Variables add information of interest about an element, such as a rating of relative importance or performance for a Task.
