nested object class

object class that represents a logical group of data elements and data frames that describe some aspect of the larger object class by which the nested object class is contained
NOTE 1 to entry: Nested object classes are used to describe object classes that are contained within another object class and are used for conceptual objects rather than tangible objects.
EXAMPLE: A message sign…

NOTE 1 to entry: Nested object classes are used to describe object classes that are contained within another object class and are used for conceptual objects rather than tangible objects.
EXAMPLE: A message sign object class might have a nested object class for the messages stored in its library, where each message is described by a number of properties, such as message number, message content, message owner, etc.

network model

infrastructure framework for the agreement between a service provider and a user

node

zero-dimensional element that is a topological junction of two or more edges, or an end point of an edge
NOTE: A node is created for topologically significant points, such as simple intersections of roads or other linear features including boundaries but also for locations such as electric beacons, kilometre-posts or sensors detecting traffic flows, being significant points specified in a map.

node; road network node

component of a road model representing a point location of the road network graph
NOTE 1 to entry: The point location typically represents a point along the road which can be used to designate the location of a junction, public transport stop, jurisdictional boundary, termination point, etc.

open-access

characteristic of a financial model that does not require membership within an organization to receive services
NOTE 1 to entry: This includes models where membership is optional and can provide extra benefits.

organisational architecture

framework into which business processes are deployed and ensures that the organization's core qualities are realized across the business processes deployed within the organization
NOTE: In this way organizations aim to consistently realize their core qualities across the services they offer to their clients

parser (for XML)

processor that reads an XML document and determines the structure and properties of the data
NOTE 1 to entry: If the parser goes beyond the XML rules for conformance and validates the document against an XML schema, the parser is said to be a “validating” parser. A generalized XML parser reads XML files and generates a hierarchically structured tree, then hands off data to viewers and other…

NOTE 1 to entry: If the parser goes beyond the XML rules for conformance and validates the document against an XML schema, the parser is said to be a “validating” parser. A generalized XML parser reads XML files and generates a hierarchically structured tree, then hands off data to viewers and other applications for processing.
A validating XML parser also checks the XML syntax and reports errors.
