RE: [saf] Model and Interfaces document

Dave,

No, no worries :-) It's just about whether they should be separate entities in the model or not (at least that's what I understand :-S) Currently they're not even roles in the spec are they? They are simply attributes in the Symptoms and that's it. So the question is: do we want to put them in a more central role (if there is justification) or just leave them as they are?

Cheers,

Stavros

Folks,

Just want to check on one thing here.

Surely you are not suggesting removing the reporter and Subject from the Symptom itself are you? I believe it is an essential component on the Symptom model.

If however if you are just talking about removing it from the list of roles, I less worried. Just seeking clarification.

Thanks.

Hi all,

Jeff you were quicker than me :-) I had already modified the model and interfaces document, but your comments gave me some food for thought.

is this a rework of the existing section(s) in the main Spec WD? Do we plan to incorporate this into the main Spec WD?

I think we decided to add any more concrete interface discussion as an appendix to the spec, and keep the operations and interfaces discussion in the spec a bit abstract. I will see into putting everything together and modifying the spec this week.

What do the different colors represent?

The colored diagram I provided is a bit outdated and comes from an ontology editor, so not the best visualization for our purposes :-)

Subject/Reporter convolutes the Spec (in my opinion) w/o adding significant benefit. I could see moving Symptom.confidence to Reporter, and possibly adding other attributes that could be leveraged by the Diagnostician – but would prefer to leave that as implementation specific.

Perhaps subject and reporter do not need to be included in such model, as you say because we haven't figured out why would anyone need them there (yet). To be discussed.

Also, the whole roles section will probably be removed if we merge with the main spec. I will send out another email with some proposed changes to the spec (to keep thing clean for the list).

The REST section is being put to test constantly here at FLE :-) So it will change continuously! More to come...

Cheers,

Stavros
