Subject: RE: [soa-rm-ra] revised diagram
We are distracting ourselves with minutiae. The question of a “unifying model” came up with respect to the clarity of specific definitions. Who had a question that required a descriptive, introductory device, and if we are introducing what is already there, why aren’t the things represented just the main headings of this view?

It is a map, not a definition. On Nov 12, 2010, at 8:31 AM, Rex Brooks wrote: I think most of you are missing the point. This is a descriptive, introductory device not a structural analysis and is, I believe, not intended to be in any sense prescriptive. We just want to get the reader's feet wet with some basic concepts that are important throughout the whole of the rest of the Section as well as the Ecosystem. Maybe I do not get something, but interactions (lines) between Actor and Action, as well as between Actor and Real Wold and Action and Real World appear rather strange to me because they bypass Semantics. I am not saying that all mentioned participants always share the same semantics but each of them certainly has its own (at least). I would put Semantics into the center of the diagram, connected all others to it and removed direct peripheral lines between them. -----Original Message----- Changed thought to semantics (it sounds more formal anyway) and dropped the 'white boxes' --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this mail list, you must leave the OASIS TC that generates this mail.
