UPDM — DLOD Elements

the MODAF Meta-Model specifically does not mention the Defence Lines
of Development (which are a UK only concept) so as to allow a more generic mechanism for
dealing with other project thread approaches – e.g. the US DoD DOTMLPF approach.
Furthermore, each line of development is specified in the UPDM profile. MOD has recently
changed the number of lines of development, and there is no reason to assume this will not
happen again.
