Dynamic views can also be used to show parallel sequences of interactions, to indicate some degree of concurrency.
To do this, you can use the DSL block syntax {
and }
to define parallel sequences.
workspace {
model {
a = softwareSystem "A"
b = softwareSystem "B"
c = softwareSystem "C"
d = softwareSystem "D"
e = softwareSystem "E"
a -> b
b -> c
b -> d
b -> e
}
views {
dynamic * {
a -> b "Makes a request to"
{
{
b -> c "Gets data from"
}
{
b -> d "Gets data from"
}
}
b -> e "Sends data to"
autoLayout
}
}
}
Please note that support for parallel sequences via the DSL is relatively limited.
