Logical Model of the SNOMED CT MRCM |
This UML class diagram illustrates that a SNOMED CT Edition contains a set of modules, which may each be associated with a set of MRCM domains and attribute rules.
...
Each attribute rule is associated with a specific rule strength (e.g.
Scg expression |

ShowParts | term ) and content type (e.g.
scg-expression ). An Attribute Rule may either associate an attribute with the domains to which it may be applied (i.e. an Attribute Domain Rule), or it may associate an attribute with the range of valid concepts that may be used as its value (i.e. an Attribute Range Rule). Attribute Domain Rules also define whether or not each attribute is considered to be grouped (by a Description Logic reasoner) for the given domain, and the attribute cardinalities for that domain.
