What is a system anatomy? • A directed, acyclic graph of functional capabilities from a usage perspective • A common understanding of a large product • Aligns the co-workers’ inner pictures of the system • A means for communication • A means for decision making • A basis for integration planning • A basis for project planning • A social accomplishment • It is not an exact, unique, formal description • Works in both agile and stage-gate project models • Term coined by Jack Järkvik in early 1990’s

How do we create an anatomy? • All participants bring functional requriement material • Work in teams of max 12 people, compare and negotiate results periodically • Identify function groups as anatoms • Brainstorm with yellow stickers • One sheet-of-paper => 30-60 anatoms • Check soundness Originator: Joakim Pilborg,KnowIT
Check soundness • Alignment with use-case model (if any) • Alignment with architecture • Money-making functions at top • Fundamental functions at bottom • Integration and test realistic • Some more notations: A Outstanding questionregarding dependency between A and B >=1 A B B A and B depends on each other OR-symbol
Grounding • Strong experience base • Theoretical evaluation in: Taxén, L. and Lilliesköld, J. (2008). Images as action instruments in complex projects, International Journal of Project Management, 26(5), 527-536. DOI: doi:10.1016/j.ijproman.2008.05.009
