depicts ideas and their relationships as nodes and edges that follow a
radial distribution. In our example, the
Organigram
branch captures the existing
roles as well as the employees assigned to these roles. The
Restriction
branch
lists limitations in terms of wiki operations. The
Event
branch captures two
milestones attached to pages
“Requirement analysis”
and
“Software desiNG”
at the onset. Next, the company already has some guidelines to capture
use cases and document deliverables. Such practices should also be adhered
to when in the wiki. The
Template
branch refers to two such guidelines
through the
“UseCaseTemplate”
node and the
“DeliverableGuidelines”
node. The
Presentation
branch will impact on the rendering of the wiki based on the
expected
“wikiSize”
and
“wikiEditingFreq”.
A“
trac light
”icon is used to
indicate the three possible values of these properties: large (red light), medium
(yellow light) and small (green light). As for the sidebar, this node includes a
navigation pane (denoted by the “
list
”icon ) and a search pane (denote by
the “
magnifier
”icon ). The sidebar is finally completed with an index pane
(denoted by the
“look here”
icon on categories
“Use Cases”
,
“Test”
,etc).
Regarding to restrictions,
“priority”
icon sets a restriction whereby
“Coders”
(i.e., the role) are restricted from
reading
(i.e., the denial) the article
“Customer
class diagram”
(i.e., the item).
