All constants that were mentioned were defined.


Class SYSTEM-MODEL

A SYSTEM-MODEL is an aggragate entity.
Subclass-Of: Entity

Class OPERATING-MODE-MODEL

An OPERATING-MODE-MODEL is a model-fragment that describes the behavior of a modeled object under a particular operating regime.
Subclass-Of: Model-fragment

Class STRUCTURAL-ELEMENT-MODEL

A STRUCTURAL-ELEMENT-MODEL is an entity that directly corresponds to a physical component or device such as a pump or container.
Subclass-Of: Entity

Class THING

A THING is the most general type of physical object.
Subclass-Of: Entity

Class TERMINAL

In DME, all connections occur over a TERMINAL.
Subclass-Of: Entity

Class JUNCTION

A JUNCTION is a conceptual entity that represents the connection between a set of terminals.

Class CONNECTION

A CONNECTION is a binary relation that expresses a kind of connection between two entities. It is a second order relation.
Subclass-Of: Binary-relation

Relation CONNECTED-TERMINALS

When two terminals are connected together, then the CONNECTED-TERMINALS relation holds between them.
Arity: 2

Class ALL=

A set is ALL= if all of its elements are equal.
Subclass-Of: Set
