<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>A metamodel is a model of a model. The metamodel provides the rules and 
constraints of modeling using a particular paradigm.
    The metamodel provides no guidance outside of its subject matter. e.g., the 
Shlaer-Mellor metamodel provides rules and constraints for modeling using the 
Shlaer-Mellor method, but it doesn&apos;&apos;t provides rules and constraints concerning 
the representation of the modeling elements.
    This allows the modeling to be done using any notation (graphical or text) 
that can unambiguously represent the elements used in the modeling.
    It also means that the metamodel also doesn&apos;&apos;t say how the model is to be 
used. i.e., how it is transformed to machine language, or how it might be run 
in simulation.<figure id='shlaer-mellor-metamodel-metamodel-PackageDiagram-figure'>

<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>Metamodel for Shlaer-Mellor modeling.

A metamodel is used to describe the rules for constructing a model. It 
specifies the construction elements and the constraints on the construction 
elements. It is the modeled depiction of the modeling method, often done using 
the modeling method.
    The metamodel for Shlaer-Mellor modeling has the perspective of a single 
domain model. All other domains are viewed only as outgoing bridges requiring 
outside servicing. All accesses to the domain are viewed as incoming bridges 
that evoke actions within the domain model. Therefore, an instance of metamodel 
should only be used for verifying a single domain model at a time.

    A variable is a subset of a type set, whether the variable contains one 
value or many. When a variable is created without value assignment, it is an 
empty subset, and it can be thought of as uninitialized, containing no value,

Even though an equation can be further broken down in a way that&apos;&apos;s not visible 
to the analyst, the break down represents atomic pieces of data usage, so while 
there are many data usages through the break downs in an operand, each 
individual break down is what is modeled by this relationship.

e.g., x = func(z) + (y * z) breaks down to:
* value of y times the value of z is assigned to invisible transient variable r.
* value of z is assigned to parameter of func(), p.
* return value of func(p) is assigned to invisible transient variable q.
* value of q plus the value of r is assigned to x.

Timely should be defined by the domain providing the service.
    A synchronous bridge provided by another domain can launch asynchronous 
actions to obtain the return value, but this domain will be blocked while 
waiting on the actions to complete. The analyst should take this into 
consideration. If the external domain definition of timely doesn&apos;&apos;t match the 
modeled domain definition of timely, then some mechanism must be put in place 
to allow the bridge to be treated as an asynchronous bridge.

Special considerations:
A synchronous service is used to access a data value from an external domain.

<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>&quot;During analysis, a bridge between two domains represents a set of assumptions 
(from the client&apos;&apos;s perspective) and a set of requirements (from the server&apos;&apos;s).
  * The client thinks of a bridge as a set of capabilities that it assumes will 
    be provided by another domain. The client does not care which domain pro-
    vides the capabilities.
  * The server thinks of the bridge as a set of requirements. The server does 
    not care which domain needs the service, and therefore makes no assumptions 
    about the client.&quot;
[OL:MWS]

Bridges can contain both synchronous and asynchronous processes. The following 
is a list of assumptions, on bridging domains, taken from [OL:MWS]:
  * OOA Mechanisms: &quot;The application and service domains assume that the mecha-
    nisms of OOA (data storage, event transmission, and the like) are provided 
    in some form.&quot; This means the other domains have a way of persisting shared 
    data, handling events directed at them, synchronizing time, etc. This is 
    the same as client and server computing machines.
  * Instant Data Attributes: &quot;The application domain assumes that sensor-based 
    attributes such as Cooking Tank.Actual Temperature have up-to-date values.&quot; 
    The action of such a bridge will be considered part of the atomicity in the 
    process model that calls it. Access will work as if it is from a data store.
  * Counterparts: &quot;Although an object in one domain doesn&apos;&apos;t require the exist-
    ence of an object in another, an instance of object in one domain may have 
    as a counterpart an instance of an object in another domain. For example, a 
    train (in the Railroad Management domain) may have a counterpoint train 
    icon in the User Interface domain.&quot;</literallayout></para>

domain.

Special considerations:
A Transfer Vector provides an external domain with the information needed to 
invoke an event on an instance within the domain being modeled. This means that 
the transfer vector must include the instance reference and event reference. It 
is up to the Architecture to determine how this information is handled, but the 
external domain should treat the transfer vector information as a composite. 
i.e., the external domain will not be able to access the instance or event 
references directly.

&quot;The analyst can think of the transfer vector as a partial event (an event 
label and an instance identifier only) that will be filled out with supplemental
data (if such is defined for the base event) and returned to Home as a complete 
event at some future time. ...

When Away receives a transfer vector from Home, Away regards the transfer vector
as a data element of type &apos;&apos;transfer vector.&apos;&apos; Away must save the transfer vector 
for later use. This is done by attributing the transfer vector to an object that
acts as a surrogate for the thread of control in the sending domain. ...

When it is time for Away to provide the asynchronous notification to Home, Away 
invokes an asynchronous return wormhole, supplying as input data:
• the previously saved transfer vector
• any additional data elements to be returned to the calling domain (Home). 
  These will be combined with the transfer vector as supplemental data items to 
  form the event expected by Home.
The asynchronous return wormhole acts as a way to &quot;return via transfer vector&quot; 
back to the Home domain.&quot; [Worm]</literallayout></para>

split state model, a segment of the state model is modeled in an object

<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>A lifecycle state model abstracts the common behavior of an object that applies 
to all instances. &quot;Two forms of state models are commonly used in analysis; in 
OOA, we use the Moore form.&quot; [OL:MWS]
    Although there is no direct relationship between instance and lifecycle, 
the relationship is explicitly directed by the mandatory relationship between 
lifecycle and object and the mandatory relationship between instance and 
object. The empty set makes this very ugly to model explicitly, because the 
relationship between Instance and Lifecycle has to be 1c:Mc and be dependent on 
the already modeled path from Instance to Object to Lifecycle. The logical 
associative object would be &quot;Active Instance&quot;, which would imply a &quot;Passive 
Instance&quot; object be created as part of a subtyping of Instance.
    A Lifecycle is instance-based, not object-based. This means that state is 
maintained for each instance of the object, not for the object, but the model 
of behavior is defined the same for all instances of the object.</literallayout></para>

<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>A number used to identify a group of identifiers. Each group of identifiers are 
used to uniquely identify an object instance.
    The preferred identifier will have a groupId value of 1. The preferred 
identifier is the only identifier used to formalize an instance relationship as 
referential attributes.

&quot;An object may have several identifiers, each composed of one or more 
attributes. For example, an Airport object may have the atttributes
    Airport Code
    Latitude
    Longitude
    City
    Number of Passenger Gates
The Airport Code attribute is an identifier of the Airport object, and the 
combination of Latitude and Longitude is another identifier of Airport.

If an object has multiple identifiers, one such identifier is chosen as the 
preferred identifier.&quot; [OL:MWS]

In tools, like BridgePoint, an indication is placed next to identifying 
attributes, and grouping of identifiers is done numerically. e.g., {I}, {I2}, 
{I3}, etc. This metamodel is just using a numeric indicator. The numeral, 1, is 
the preferred identifier, and like BridgePoint, the editor part of the toolset 
might choose to only display numerals greater than one.</literallayout></para>

<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>A synchronous accessor executes during the time that the action is running.
(see [OL:MWS] page 131)
Only synchronous accessors can return a value. Action is suspended until the 
value is returned. This means that a synchronous service provided by another 
domain can launch asynchronous actions to obtain the return value, but this 
domain will be blocked while waiting on the actions to complete. The analyst 
should take this into consideration.</literallayout></para>

<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>An instance of composition is the loop segment containing the relationship 
instance that is the result of the composition equation.

&quot;[When a relationship is the logical consequence of other relationships,] 
Such a relationship is said to be formed by composition (as in composition of 
functions in mathematics. [...] A relationship formed by composition cannot be 
formalized in referential attributes, since the connections between the 
instances is already given by the connections between the [composing 
relationships].
    A relationship formed by composition is annotated on the model as [composed 
relationship = 1st composing relationship + 2nd composing relationship [+ nth 
composing relationship ...]].&quot; [OL:MWS]

&quot;Composed Relationships. Another special case occurs when the constraint on the 
referential attribute is such that it identifies a single instance of the 
associated object. [...] Composition of relationships captures the constraint 
directly in data [...] However the use of composition is limited in that it 
requires that the constraint always identify a single associated instance.&quot; 
[OOA96]

Both definitions identify compositions as relationship combinations that loop 
back to the originating instance. [miUML] calls compositions, &quot;Constrained 
Loops&quot;, because the compostion equation forms a constraint on the object 
instances allowed to participate.
    [OOA96] also discusses collapsed referentials, but the example shows them 
to be an alternative way to draw compositions on the object model. This 
metamodel will only model a composition and leave the way to display it up to 
the model editor.</literallayout></para>

<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>&quot;For data elements that have the nature of names, we need to be able to define
symbolic data types:
    data type &lt;data type name&gt; is symbolic
    length is (from &lt;minimum number of characters&gt; to ) 
        &lt;maximum number of characters&gt;
    (default value is &lt;character string&gt;)
The analyst specifies the maximum and minimum number of characters required 
based on his or her knowledge of the longest and shortest plausible values. 
Hence: 
    data type gas name is symbolic
    length is from 2 to 15
    default value is Helium

The operations defined for symbolic data types are:
    - concatenate (represented as +); the result of concatenation is a data 
        element of base type symbolic.
    - comparison for identical value, represented as = (identical in value) and 
        != (not identical in value). The result of such a comparison yields a 
        data element of base type boolean.
    - comparison for position in a collating sequence[5], represented as &lt;
        (before), &gt; (after), &lt;= (before or identical), and &gt;= (identical or 
        after). The result of such a comparison yields a data element of base 
        type boolean.

[5] A collating sequence prescribes the order of all the characters in a 
specified character set, typically including letters, numbers, and punctuation 
marks. Collating sequences are defined in the implementation environment, and 
may vary from country to country depending on the concept of &quot;alphabetical 
order&quot; and the repertoire of characters or symbols used in the natural 
language.&quot; [OOAData] </literallayout></para>

</entry>
<entry>
<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>The ordinal core type automatically populated in the metamodel is specified as
ascending and based upon identifier, because the only known operation is for 
traversing a collection of object instances.
    To support other ordinal uses in a process model, the user must create a 
user-defined ordinal type.
    The below gives more detail on ordinals:
&quot;Ordinal data types are used to express order, such as first, second, and so on.
However, the subject of ordering is a lot more interesting that just this 
common example; hence the following digression.
An ordering is always applied to a set of elements. The set can be finite or 
infinite. There are two types of orderings to consider. The first is the most 
familiar; it is a complete ordering. What this means is that you can express 
the concept of &quot;before&quot; (represented as &lt;) between any two members of the set. 
Hence, 7 is before 26 ( 7 &lt; 26 ). A complete ordering has the property of 
transitivity:
    If A is before B, and B is before C, then A is before C.
A practical example would be the ordering of the cars that make up a freight 
train. Assume we define a first car. Then we could pick any two cars and easily 
determine which one was before the other.
Far more interesting are the partial orderings. Consider this sketch of a 
partial ordering.
A -&gt; B -&gt; C -&gt; D
          + -&gt; E -&gt; F -&gt; G
Using the obvious interpretation, we can say that A &lt; B (A is before B), C &lt; D, 
C &lt; E, and E &lt; F. But we cannot say anything about the relationship between D 
and F: They are non-comparable.
Examples of structures that are partially ordered include PERT charts, trees 
used for any purpose, interlock chains, the connectivity of an electric grid, 
and the like. All of these can be modeled in complete detail using standard OOA 
relationships; for examples see [Starr96] and Chapter 4 of Shlaer-Mellor
Method: The OOA96 Report. Note, however, that when modeling such a structure, 
one frequently finds it necessary to employ quite a number of ancillary objects 
(such as root node, parent node, child node, and leaf node) together with a 
significant set of relationships  all required to express a generally 
well-known concept. While this can be quite satisfying when one is in a purist 
frame of mind, the pragmatist points out that such constructions are often of 
limited value, obscuring, as they can, the true purpose of the model. This 
becomes particularly pertinent when constructing models of an architecture, 
where ordering is a particularly prominent theme (see The Timepoint 
Architecture chapter). Hence we have defined the ordinal base data type, 
leaving it to the judgment of the analyst as for when to use an ordinal 
attribute as opposed to using more fully expressive OOA objects and 
relationships.

Returning now to the main theme, an ordinal data type is defined by:
    data type &lt;data type name&gt; is ordinal
The operations permitted for ordinal data types are
    - the comparisons = and != (identical and not identical in value)
    - the comparisons &lt; (read as &quot;before&quot;), &gt;, &lt;= , and &gt;= . Each such 
        comparison yields a data element of base type boolean if the ordering 
        is complete, and of base type extended boolean if the ordering is
        partial.&quot; [OOAData]

<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>Numeric is as described in [OOAData] below. NOTE: The description isn&apos;&apos;t a model.
Some seeming attributes of numeric in the description might be modeled as 
their own objects. e.g., &quot;units&quot; aren&apos;&apos;t always used, so cannot be an attribute.

&quot;If a data type is numeric in nature, write:
    data type &lt;data type name&gt; is numeric (base &lt;N&gt;)
    range is from &lt;low limit&gt; to &lt;high limit&gt;
    units are &lt;unit symbol&gt;
    precision is &lt;smallest discriminant&gt;
    ( default value is &lt;value&gt; )
where base N specifies the base of the quantities &lt;low limit&gt;, &lt;high limit&gt;, 
&lt;smallest discriminant&gt; and &lt;value&gt;. If base N is omitted, base 10 is assumed. 
Hence:
    data type ring diameter is numeric
    range is from 0 to 39
    units are cm
    precision is 0.01
    data type bit pattern is numeric base 8
    range is from 0 to 177777
    units are octal bits
    precision is 1
Note that the analyst does not specify whether a numeric data type will be 
implemented as an integer or a real number. This will ultimately be determined 
by the architecture, based on the native types available in the implementation 
language, the word length of these native types, and the range and precision 
required for the data type. As a result, the OOA models of any domain are 
entirely decoupled from the implementation technology, thereby maximizing the 
potential for reuse across a wide range of platforms and implementation 
languages.

The operations permitted for numeric data types are:
    - the standard arithmetic operations +, -, * (multiplication), / (division),
        %% (division modulo N), and ** (exponentiation). The result of such an 
        operation is again of base type numeric.
    - the standard arithmetic comparisons of = , != , &lt;, &gt;, &lt;= , and &gt;= . The 
        result of such a comparison yields a data element of base type 
        boolean.&quot; [OOAData]</literallayout></para>

<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>&quot;A type may be composite, but the corresponding attribute must always be 
treated by the domain as a single unit&quot; [xtUML]

The operations permitted using data types based on composite are limited to 
equality comparison and assignment to another composite type.

If individual elements of a composite type are to be operated on within the 
passed-to domain, then they must be sent individually. If they need to be 
treated as a group, then a class must be declared within the domain that 
supports them.

The operations external to the domain to support these two mechanisms consist 
of ungrouping the data from the composite, making the data available to the 
domain, and then regrouping the processed data. NOTE: while this process sounds
onerous, the architecture can perform coping mechanisms, such as mapping 
instances of the class in the domain to point to memory locations in the 
composite external to the domain. In this case, the whole ungroup, pass-in, and 
regroup is done automatically and the external operation only needs to ensure 
the sequence occurs without interference.</literallayout></para>

    - comparison for identical value, represented as = (identical in value) and 
        != (not identical in value). The result of such a comparison yields a

    - comparison for position in a collating sequence[5], represented as &lt;

[5] A collating sequence prescribes the order of all the characters in a 
specified character set, typically including letters, numbers, and punctuation 
marks. Collating sequences are defined in the implementation environment, and 
may vary from country to country depending on the concept of &quot;alphabetical

often used in relationships with one using an active perspective and one using

&quot;4.2 Modeling Symmetric Reflexive Relationships
On the Information Model, show a symmetric relationship with a relationship 
line that loops back to the object. Since, by definition, such a relationship 
must have the same name, multiplicity, and conditionality at each end, name and 
characterize the relationship at one end only. To ensure that an instance of 
the relationship appears only once in the model, always formalize the 
relationship with an associative object regardless of the multiplicity of the 
relationship itself. In Figure 4.1 we show the Employee WORKS WITH Employee 
relationship so formalized.&quot; [OOA96]

Unlike The OOA96 Report, this metamodel only requires an associative object for 
relationship multiplicities that normally require an associative object. For 
symmetric reflexive, there is only the one multiplicity that doesn&apos;&apos;t require an 
associative object.</literallayout></para>

<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>Set an existing relationship to be constrained as a composition from it&apos;&apos;s 
participation in a relationship loop, rather than by referential attributes.

&quot;[When a relationship is the logical consequence of other relationships,] 
Such a relationship is said to be formed by composition (as in composition of 
functions in mathematics. [...] A relationship formed by composition cannot be 
formalized in referential attributes, since the connections between the 
instances is already given by the connections between the [composing 
relationships].
    A relationship formed by composition is annotated on the model as [composed 
relationship = 1st composing relationship + 2nd composing relationship [+ nth 
composing relationship ...]].&quot; [OL:MWS]

&quot;Composed Relationships. Another special case occurs when the constraint on the 
referential attribute is such that it identifies a single instance of the 
associated object. [...] Composition of relationships captures the constraint 
directly in data [...] However the use of composition is limited in that it 
requires that the constraint always identify a single associated instance.&quot; 
[OOA96]

Both definitions identify compositions as relationship combinations that loop 
back to the originating instance. [miUML] calls compositions, &quot;Constrained 
Loops&quot;, because the compostion equation forms a constraint on the object 
instances allowed to participate.
    [OOA96] also discusses collapsed referentials, but the example shows them 
to be an alternative way to draw compositions on the object model. This 
metamodel will only model a composition and leave the way to display it up to 
the model editor.</literallayout></para>

<title>createBinaryRelationship</title>
<subtitle></subtitle>
<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>Create a binary relationship between two specified object instances, or create 
a temporary binary relationship between one or two specified objects for the 
purpose of statically verifying an object model.
    A binary relationship between the same object must specify the object in 
both the passiveObject and activeObject parameters.
    The temporary instances are created by setting both instance parameters to 
zero. Only setting one to zero is an error.
    The active/passive terminology used is reflective of how verb phrases are 
often used in relationships with one using an active perspective and one using 
a passive perspective. It is a differentiator in the metamodel, but not a hard 
rule for Shlaer-Mellor modeling. If the perspective is unclear or the same in 
both directions, then just arbitrarily assign the parameters.
    Referential cheatsheet:
    (All are reflexive)
    1:1 - choose either side
    1:1c - 1c
    1:M  - M
    1:Mc - Mc
    1c:1c - use associative object
    1c:M  - use associative object
    1c:Mc - use associative object

&quot;4.2 Modeling Symmetric Reflexive Relationships
On the Information Model, show a symmetric relationship with a relationship 
line that loops back to the object. Since, by definition, such a relationship 
must have the same name, multiplicity, and conditionality at each end, name and 
characterize the relationship at one end only. To ensure that an instance of 
the relationship appears only once in the model, always formalize the 
relationship with an associative object regardless of the multiplicity of the 
relationship itself. In Figure 4.1 we show the Employee WORKS WITH Employee 
relationship so formalized.&quot; [OOA96]

Unlike The OOA96 Report, this metamodel only requires an associative object for 
relationship multiplicities that normally require an associative object. For 
symmetric reflexive, there is only the one multiplicity that doesn&apos;&apos;t require an 
associative object.</literallayout></para>

<title>setCompositionConstraint</title>
<subtitle></subtitle>
<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>Set an existing relationship to be constrained as a composition from it&apos;&apos;s 
participation in a relationship loop, rather than by referential attributes.

&quot;[When a relationship is the logical consequence of other relationships,] 
Such a relationship is said to be formed by composition (as in composition of 
functions in mathematics. [...] A relationship formed by composition cannot be 
formalized in referential attributes, since the connections between the 
instances is already given by the connections between the [composing 
relationships].
    A relationship formed by composition is annotated on the model as [composed 
relationship = 1st composing relationship + 2nd composing relationship [+ nth 
composing relationship ...]].&quot; [OL:MWS]

&quot;Composed Relationships. Another special case occurs when the constraint on the 
referential attribute is such that it identifies a single instance of the 
associated object. [...] Composition of relationships captures the constraint 
directly in data [...] However the use of composition is limited in that it 
requires that the constraint always identify a single associated instance.&quot; 
[OOA96]

Both definitions identify compositions as relationship combinations that loop 
back to the originating instance. [miUML] calls compositions, &quot;Constrained 
Loops&quot;, because the compostion equation forms a constraint on the object 
instances allowed to participate.
    [OOA96] also discusses collapsed referentials, but the example shows them 
to be an alternative way to draw compositions on the object model. This 
metamodel will only model a composition and leave the way to display it up to 
the model editor.</literallayout></para>

<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>Adds an empty instance-based state model segment to the specified subset.
    As states are unconditional requirements, an informational log message is 
generated to remind the user that states need to be created.
    Segments can be whole stand-alone state models, or splices of state models. 
At the set level, a state model segment is subtyped as a general segment to 
allow for subset segments to be subtyped as specializing segments. General 
segments can only exist at the object level (topmost) of a subtyping hierarchy.
    Subtype segments are labeled peer segments when they represent a whole 
lifecycle (even if a splice), or a splice when they represent a unique path 
within the whole lifecycle.
    Splices are branches formed via one supertype relationship. Splicing can be 
done multi-level, but a multidirectional supertype requires another splice. An 
object instance can only be in one state at a time, and the state must be 
unambiguous.
    A splice represents a instance-determined branch in the path of the 
lifecycle. A splice should always share a common transition from a common state 
to start the path, but the path doesn&apos;&apos;t have to rejoin at the same state or by 
the same transition. The &quot;same data&quot; rule applies to the common transition at 
the start of a splice, even though the instance-based states can have their own 
process models.
    Peer subtype segments are not splices of a supertype; they represent the 
whole lifecycle of an object instance. Peer subtypes restrict the legality of 
the existence of state models among subtypes, because an object instance can&apos;&apos;t 
have two concurrent lifecycles; this implies special caution when dealing with 
multidirectional and intersecting subtypes.
    A peer subtype segment will have no segments above it in a subtyping 
hierarchy.</literallayout></para>

<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>Adds an empty instance-based state model segment to the specified subset.
    As states are unconditional requirements, an informational log message is 
generated to remind the user that states need to be created.
    Segments can be whole stand-alone state models, or splices of state models. 
At the set level, a state model segment is subtyped as a general segment to 
allow for subset segments to be subtyped as specializing segments. General 
segments can only exist at the object level (topmost) of a subtyping hierarchy.
    Subtype segments are labeled peer segments when they represent a whole 
lifecycle (even if a splice), or a splice when they represent a unique path 
within the whole lifecycle.
    Splices are branches formed via one supertype relationship. Splicing can be 
done multi-level, but a multidirectional supertype requires another splice. An 
object instance can only be in one state at a time, and the state must be 
unambiguous.
    A splice represents a instance-determined branch in the path of the 
lifecycle. A splice should always share a common transition from a common state 
to start the path, but the path doesn&apos;&apos;t have to rejoin at the same state or by 
the same transition. The &quot;same data&quot; rule applies to the common transition at 
the start of a splice, even though the instance-based states can have their own 
process models.
    Peer subtype segments are not splices of a supertype; they represent the 
whole lifecycle of an object instance. Peer subtypes restrict the legality of 
the existence of state models among subtypes, because an object instance can&apos;&apos;t 
have two concurrent lifecycles; this implies special caution when dealing with 
multidirectional and intersecting subtypes.
    A peer subtype segment will have no segments above it in a subtyping 
hierarchy.</literallayout></para>

    A binary relationship between the same object must specify the object in

    The temporary instances are created by setting both instance parameters to

    The active/passive terminology used is reflective of how verb phrases are 
often used in relationships with one using an active perspective and one using 
a passive perspective. It is a differentiator in the metamodel, but not a hard 
rule for Shlaer-Mellor modeling. If the perspective is unclear or the same in 
both directions, then just arbitrarily assign the parameters.

&quot;4.2 Modeling Symmetric Reflexive Relationships
On the Information Model, show a symmetric relationship with a relationship 
line that loops back to the object. Since, by definition, such a relationship 
must have the same name, multiplicity, and conditionality at each end, name and 
characterize the relationship at one end only. To ensure that an instance of 
the relationship appears only once in the model, always formalize the 
relationship with an associative object regardless of the multiplicity of the 
relationship itself. In Figure 4.1 we show the Employee WORKS WITH Employee 
relationship so formalized.&quot; [OOA96]

Unlike The OOA96 Report, this metamodel only requires an associative object for 
relationship multiplicities that normally require an associative object. For 
symmetric reflexive, there is only the one multiplicity that doesn&apos;&apos;t require an 
associative object.</literallayout></para>

<para><literallayout xml:space='preserve' class='monospaced'>Set an existing relationship to be constrained as a composition from it&apos;&apos;s 
participation in a relationship loop, rather than by referential attributes.

&quot;[When a relationship is the logical consequence of other relationships,] 
Such a relationship is said to be formed by composition (as in composition of 
functions in mathematics. [...] A relationship formed by composition cannot be 
formalized in referential attributes, since the connections between the 
instances is already given by the connections between the [composing 
relationships].
    A relationship formed by composition is annotated on the model as [composed 
relationship = 1st composing relationship + 2nd composing relationship [+ nth 
composing relationship ...]].&quot; [OL:MWS]

&quot;Composed Relationships. Another special case occurs when the constraint on the 
referential attribute is such that it identifies a single instance of the 
associated object. [...] Composition of relationships captures the constraint 
directly in data [...] However the use of composition is limited in that it 
requires that the constraint always identify a single associated instance.&quot; 
[OOA96]

Both definitions identify compositions as relationship combinations that loop 
back to the originating instance. [miUML] calls compositions, &quot;Constrained 
Loops&quot;, because the compostion equation forms a constraint on the object 
instances allowed to participate.
    [OOA96] also discusses collapsed referentials, but the example shows them 
to be an alternative way to draw compositions on the object model. This 
metamodel will only model a composition and leave the way to display it up to 
the model editor.</literallayout></para>
