AEP — Relationship between Section 6 & 7 unclear

The relationship between sections 6 & 7 isn't clear. Are they two alternative descriptions of the same thing? Or two specifications of two different things? Please clarify.

The whole of section 6 is a natural language specification of a complex calculation to be undertaken to compute an Automated Enhancement Points value for a program. If this isn't specified formally elsewhere (e.g. using SMM & OCL or ALF, then it should be).

On the other hand, if (as I suspect) section 7 is the formal specification in SMM of the algorithm informally described in Section 6, then more description is needed of how the two relate to each other.

Section 7 also needs to be made more human-readable. This human reader couldn't extract any meaning at all from PDF pages 35 to 147 (although I'm sure there's plenty of meaning there!). If this is just a formatted dump of the contents of admtf/15-10-02 (the XMI file), then including it doesn't add much value to the specification. It's only worth including if it can be related to the contents of Section 6 and/or it includes extra explanatory text to help implementers understand the XMI file.
