According to the physical elements metamodel, a facility is a specialization of a node, which is an active structure element that represents a computational or physical resource that hosts, manipulates, or interacts with other computational or physical resources. A facility can be used to model physical buildings or locations.

According to the ISO/IEC 42010 standard1, an architecture viewpoint is a specification of the conventions for constructing and using a view. A view is a representation of a whole system from the perspective of a related set of concerns. An architecture view on an Enterprise Architecture is a representation of a part or whole of an Enterprise Architecture from the perspective of one or more stakeholders and their concerns.

The ArchiMate language provides a flexible approach in which architects and other stakeholders can use their own views on the Enterprise Architecture. In this approach, architecture views are specified by architecture viewpoints.Architecture viewpoints define abstractions on the set of models representing the Enterprise Architecture, each aimed at a particular type of stakeholder and addressing a particular set of concerns2.

Based on the ArchiMate 3 documents or objectives, a data object is a passive structure element that represents a piece of data that can be manipulated by behavior elements such as application functions or services. A passive structure element is a structural element that cannot perform behavior. Active structure elements can perform behavior on passive structure elements.

Based on the ArchiMate 3 documents or objectives, the diagram uses a specialization relationship to indicate that the two business roles Travel Insurance Claim Analyst and Home Insurance Product Specialist are more specific versions of the business role Specialist. A specialization relationship is a type of structural relationship that indicates that an object is a specialization of another object. The notation for a specialization relationship is a solid line with an empty triangle at the end that points to the more general element.

The diagram shows a work package, which is a grouping of behavior and/or structure elements that can be assigned to one or more performers. A work package can be used to model a project or a program, and it can contain deliverables, which are outcomes of the work package. The four elements (A, B, C, and D) are all deliverables that are part of the work package.
