The Router Element : Router Element for the Activity Charts

Router Element for the Activity Charts

Activity charts in Rational Statemate offer a drawing element called the Router. The router makes creating and maintaining activity charts easier by reducing the need to draw many flow lines between activities.

The router element can be used when you have a large number of flow lines between different activities in your activity chart. It effectively “routes” the signals from a source to a target within the diagram or to another part of the system. Rational Statemate check-model checking is performed on the router blocks to ensure that “what goes in also comes out.” Interface reporting can be performed on activities as well as the router blocks to analyze where signals go within the diagram.
