Business Decomposition using Submodels
• Important Sub-model Characteristics
– Nested sub-model capabilities effectively break down large,
complicated views of the data model
– Tied to the main model above it in the structure
– Can have independent display characteristics such as layout, color,
display settings, notation and similar items
– Changes can be propagated to each parent sub-model in the hierarchy
– Changes will automatically propagated to the associated main model
