SYSML13 — sentence introduced in §9.1 by the resolution to issue #16280 is confusing

  • Key: SYSML13-60
  • Legacy Issue Number: 16608
  • Status: closed

  • Summary:

    The following sentence introduced in §9.1 by the resolution to issue #16280 is confusing: "Default compatibility rules are defined for connecting blocks used in composite structure, including parts and ports [...]" since it is not "blocks" (SysML sense), which are not connectable elements, that are connected in composite structure but parts and ports. In addition the rules we are speaking about deal with "matching/mapping" (i.e. routing) rather than with "compatibility" since one can have several possible solutions (mapping) to connect two compatible ports.

    I suggest replacing this sentence by the following one: "Default matching rules are defined for connecting parts or ports in composite structure but specific mappings can be specified thanks to association blocks".
