This section specifies the template recommended_human_resource.

NOTE The template has been defined in the context of UK_Defence. Refer to the business context for details of related templates.

NOTE An explanation of a template and the associated instantiation path is provided in the Template overview section.

Description

This template describes how to represent the UK_Defence concept of a recommended human resource in terms of PLCS model elements (templates, entities, and reference data).

Business perspective

This information object identifies the recommended facility type and the quantities required at a particular location to support the Platform, system and equipment for which the associated Support Solution Definition was developed.

Input parameters

The following input parameters are defined for this template:

context (Type= 'ENTITY (Required_resource)' )

The recommended human resources.

id (Type='STRING')

The identifier applied to the recommended human resource.

source_organization (Type='STRING')

The organization or information system that created the associated identifier. Alternatively this could be set to /NULL when Person or Information System is the source; see Identifier template characterizations.

location (Type= 'SELECT (resource_item_select)' )

The location of the recommended human resource.

person_type (Type= 'ENTITY (Type_of_person)' )

The related person type.

Reference parameters

The following reference parameters are defined for this template:

req_res_by_spec(Type='ENTITY (Required_resource_by_specification)')

Allow the Required_resource_by_specification entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.

Note: The Required_resource_by_specification entity can be referenced in a template path by:

%^target = $recommended_human_resource.req_res_by_spec%

where target is the parameter to which the Required_resource_by_specification is bound.

req_res_by_res_item(Type='ENTITY (Required_resource_by_resource_item)')

Allow the Required_resource_by_resource_item entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.

Note: The Required_resource_by_resource_item entity can be referenced in a template path by:

%^target = $recommended_human_resource.req_res_by_res_item%

where target is the parameter to which the Required_resource_by_resource_item is bound.

recomm_human_res_res_item(Type='ENTITY (Resource_item)')

Allow the Resource_item entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.

Note: The Resource_item entity can be referenced in a template path by:

%^target = $recommended_human_resource.recomm_human_res_res_item%

where target is the parameter to which the Resource_item is bound.

res_item_ass(Type='ENTITY (Resource_item_assignment)')

Allow the Resource_item_assignment entity instantiated in this path to be referenced when this template is used.

Note: The Resource_item_assignment entity can be referenced in a template path by:

%^target = $recommended_human_resource.res_item_ass%

where target is the parameter to which the Resource_item_assignment is bound.

Instantiation path

The instantiation path shown below specifies the entities that are to be instantiated by the template.

A description of templates and the syntax for the instantiation path is provided in the Templates Help/Information section.

Instance diagrams

The instance diagram in Figure 4 shows an example of the EXPRESS entities and templates that are instantiated by the template:

/recommended_human_resource(context='#299', person_type='#138', id='Engineer-1', source_organization='6421', location='#229'')/

(an illustration of the consolidated recommended_human_resource template is shown in Figure 5 below.)

The instance diagram in Figure 5 shows the graphic symbol for the template that is to be used in other instance diagrams. The example template is:

/recommended_human_resource(context='#299', person_type='#138', id='Engineer-1', source_organization='6421', location='#229'')/

Characterizations

No common characterizations of the template recommended_human_resource have been identified. However, the ISO 10303-239 EXPRESS model may enable other assignments to the entities instantiated by the template.
