This is an example of how to create a Service Mode Architecture Model Project.
Note: This example uses the IBM Rational Software Architect 7.5 Standard Edition tool to create a Service Mode Architecture specification with applied Service Modes Architectures Profile.
Note: The project below is assumed to be called NewModes, replace ServiceModes with a name of your choice.
1. | In RSA 7.5, switch to the Modeling Perspective |
a. | Locate the Eclipse menu bar. |
b. | Select Window à Open Perspective àOther. |
c. | Select Modeling (default). |
|

2. Create a new UML Model Project
a. | Select File à New à Other àModeling à Model Project and click next. |
b. | Enter the name for the project (e.g. NewModes) and click next. |
c. | Keep new model as "Standard Template" and click next. |
d. | Under Categories select General. |
e. | Under Templates select Blank Package. |
f. | Under the model Filename enter NewModesModel. |
g. | Click next to continue. |
h. | Select Package Type as Model. |
i. | Keep the Diagram Type as Freeform Diagram. |
j. | Click Finish to create the new project. |
k. | Notice a new project is visible in the Project Explorer (as show below). |
|

3. Import and apply the Service Modes Architecture profiles
a. | Switch to the Navigator view |
b. | From Windows Explorer, locate the Service Modes Architecture profile files and drag-and-drop them on to the NewModes project folder in the Navigator view (as shown below) |

c. | Switch back to the Project Explorer view and select the NewModes model branch |
d. | Locate the model Properties view and select Profiles. |
e. | On the view select Add Profile à Profile in Workspace àBrowse and select the ModesProfile.epx under NewModes. |
f. | Repeat e. adding both QoSProfile.epx and UML4SOA_0.9.epx |

g. | Switch to the Stereotypes perspective of the model properties. |
h. | Select Apply Stereotypes select the ModesModel from the ModesProfile profile and click OK. |
i. | Note that the stereotype is added to the applied stereotypes list. |

4. Save the changes
a. | Locate the Eclipse menu bar. |
b. | Select File à Save All. |
