22. The Fame Demonstrator The changes and developments which we are wrestling with are big and complex. We need tools to help us understand what is possible, how it could work and what it implies. We need to make sense of things from many different points of view. The Demonstrator tool allows us to move from early simulations and animations of proposed approaches to the monitoring and evaluation of real systems as they are developed and deployed.

23. What can it do? Animate models of infrastructure, applications and service processes. Present views on multiple screens at different levels of detail. Relate client, practitioner, management and technology perspectives. Monitor real activities in systems and show what is going on. Sometimes we do need to lift up the bonnet and look at what is going on inside - even if it is scary!

24. The Demonstrator Making sense of it all by fitting the views together Process and work-flow Systems and Networks Consent Applications and Services
