Model Architecture Analysis
===========================

Analyze an existing architecture model and identify interfaces and create
component hierarchy. It reads in an architectural model and performs up to
two operations on the model:
(a) Identifying interfaces
(b) generate hierarchical components.
The latter requires a map file which maps operations to components.

For the option **hierarchy-grouping** you need to specify at least one map file
containing the function module mapping.
