Template: Exemplar:MeasuredProperty

This section specifies the template MeasuredProperty.

The specification comprises a SysML Block that represents the template and an associated Parametric Diagram that defines the templates and PLCS PSMTemplate objects instantiated by the MeasuredProperty template.

The specification comprises the following sections:

NOTE    An explanation of a template and its specification is provided in the Template overview

The MeasuredProperty template describes how to represent a Property and it's associated data which can be applied to a SerialisedAsset of type LifedAsset.

No templates have been explicitly defined as being related to the MeasuredProperty template.

NOTE    The MeasuredProperty template may make reference to other templates as part of the Parametric Diagram. These are not listed here.

Figure 1 shows the SysML Block that represents the template. The Block is an abstraction representing a pattern of templates and PLCS PSMTemplate objects.

The properties, i.e. the SysML Block Part, Reference and Value properties, of the template's SysML Block are described in the Template Properties section.

The output ports shown on the template's SysML Block are described in the template output ports section.

The SysML Parametric diagrams for the template Block are shown in template parametric diagram section.

The following SysML Part, Reference, and Value properties are defined for this template:

References:
propertyName [1] (Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:ProxyItemSelect)
The name of the life measurement/property unit. e.g. FlyingHours or SortieComments
The reference data used in Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:ProxyItemSelect is restricted as follows:
RDL constraint 1:
The reference data for:
ExternalOwlObject.individual
is restricted to classes that are subclasses of the following class:
propertyUnit [1] (Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:ProxyItemSelect)
The unit of measurement of the property.
The reference data used in Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:ProxyItemSelect is restricted as follows:
RDL constraint 1:
The reference data for:
ExternalOwlObject.individual
is restricted to classes that are subclasses of the following class:
valueType [1] (Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:ExternalOwlClass)
Either a METER or CUMULATIVE reading of life consumption, or POST SORTIE, or some type of JOURNAL EVENT.

The following constraint, normally a uniqueness constraint, is applicable when instantiating the ExternalOwlClass:

rule.Ap239Ap233Psm.ExternalOwlClass.ur1
Constraint: ur1
Specification: (OCL2.0)
ExternalOwlClass::allInstances()->isUnique(class)
The reference data used in Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:ExternalOwlClass is restricted as follows:
RDL constraint 1:
The reference data for:
ExternalOwlObject.individual
is restricted to classes that are subclasses of the following class:
associatedWith [1] (Template: Exemplar:SerialisedAsset)
The SerialisedAsset that this property is measured on.
Values:
dateTimeRecorded [1] (Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:DateTimeString)
The date and time that the property value was recorded.

The following constraint, normally a uniqueness constraint, is applicable when instantiating the DateTimeString:

rule.Ap239Ap233Psm.ExternalOwlClass.ur1
Constraint: XSDDATETIME
Specification: (OCL2.0)
self.matches('[0-9]{4}-[0-9]{2}-[0-9]{2}T[0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2}:[0-9]{2}Z')
propertyValue [1] (Real)
The value recorded against the property.
valueIncrement [0..1] (Real)
The change in value of the property since the last update.

The following output ports are defined for this template:

propertyValue (Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:PropertyValue)
Enables the Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:PropertyValue instantiated by this template to be referenced when the template is used.
propertyValueAssignment (Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:PropertyValueAssignment)
Enables the Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:PropertyValueAssignment instantiated by this template to be referenced when the template is used.

There are no constraints defined for this template.

This section describes the template's Parametric Diagram. The diagram details the pattern of templates and PLCS PSMTemplate objects that are required to represent the template MeasuredProperty.

The public properties, i.e. those visible in the template's SysML block (See Figure 1) are shown on the left of a Parametric Diagram.

NOTE    Restrictions on the reference data to be set on the public properties is defined in the Template Properties section.

The output ports are shown on the right of a Parametric Diagram.

PLCS PSM objects are shaded khaki and Templates are shaded light green in a Parametric Diagram.

The following blocks are instantiated by this template and bound to private parts of the template as shown in the Parametric Diagram section:

Private Part Property:propertyValueNumeric [1] (Template: OASIS:PropertyValueNumeric)
Private Part Property:propertyValueIncrement [0..1] (Template: OASIS:PropertyValueNumeric)
Private Part Property:propertyValueRelationship [0..1] (Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:PropertyValueRelationship)
Private Reference Property:individualValueIncrement [1] (Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:ExternalOwlObject)

The following constraint, normally a uniqueness constraint, is applicable when instantiating the ExternalOwlObject:

rule.Ap239Ap233Psm.ExternalOwlClass.ur1
Constraint: ur1
Specification: (OCL2.0)
ExternalOwlObject::allInstances()->isUnique(individual)
Private Reference Property:classIncrementFrom [1] (Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:ExternalOwlClass)

The following constraint, normally a uniqueness constraint, is applicable when instantiating the ExternalOwlClass:

rule.Ap239Ap233Psm.ExternalOwlClass.ur1
Constraint: ur1
Specification: (OCL2.0)
ExternalOwlClass::allInstances()->isUnique(class)
Private Part Property:propertyValueAssignment [1] (Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:PropertyValueAssignment)
Private Part Property:classifier [1] (Template: OASIS:Classifier)
Private Part Property:pvrClassifier [1] (Block: Ap239Ap233Psm:Classification)

Figure 3 shows the instances that have been instantiated in the template. These are used to set the default value of blocks.
