Æilus Value System Schema

Schema shows how value (Æ) moves through converters and flows inside a system.

Converter is a functional block (team, service, subsystem) that receives value elements, transforms them and produces new ones.

Flow is a directional connection between converters (or with the outside world). It carries a certain amount of value or anti-value. Flows can be:

• External in — value entering the system.
• External out — value leaving the system.
• Internal — value between converters.

Value element types describe what exactly moves through the system: customer value, revenue, costs, risks, technical debt, etc.

Text objects are free-form comments placed on the diagram via the Add Text button.

Tools:

• Hand — pan the canvas and select single elements.
• Arrow — multi-select converters with a rectangle and move them together.
