Artifact: Application Interaction Matrix
Description
Main Description

The purpose of the Application Interaction matrix is to depict communications relationships between systems (i.e., application components).

The mapping of the application interactions shows in matrix form the equivalent of the Interface Catalog or an Application Communication diagram.

The Application Interaction matrix is a two-dimensional table with Application Service, Logical Application Component, and Physical Application Component on both the rows and the columns of the table.

The relationships depicted by this matrix include:

  • Application Service consumes Application Service
  • Logical Application Component communicates with Logical Application Component
  • Physical Application Component communicates with Physical Application Component
