| <h1 class="topictitle1">Artifact</h1> |
| <div><p>An artifact is a tangible work product that is consumed, produced, or modified |
| by tasks. Artifacts may be composed of other artifacts. For example, a model |
| artifact can be composed of model elements, which are also artifacts. </p> |
| <p>Roles use artifacts to perform tasks and to produce other artifacts. Each |
| artifact is the responsibility of a single role, making responsibility easy |
| to identify and understand, and promoting the idea that every piece of information |
| produced in a method requires the appropriate set of skills. Even though only |
| one role is responsible for an artifact, other roles may use the artifacts.</p> |
