KERML_ — HappensLink disjointness documentation inconsistent

Open Closed All
  • Key: KERML_-98
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: NIST ( Mr. Conrad Bock)
  • Summary:

    [From Steve Jenkins ] In 9.2.4.2.5 (HappensLink), Description, second sentence says

    They cannot happen in time (be Occurrences), making them disjoint with LinkObject.

    and in Transfer.kerml, HappenLink documentation, starting in the second sentence, says

    ... they cannot also be Occurrences that happen in time. Therefore HappensLink is disjoint with LinkObject, that is, no HappensLink can also be a LinkObject.

    which give disjointness more narrowly than the justifications just before them. The declaration of HappenLink in Transfer.kerml is

    assoc HappensLink specializes BinaryLink disjoint from Occurrence { ...

    aligning with the disjointness justifications above.
