Abstract

This document gives a detailed description of the Simulation Data Model v1.1. It lays out the model's packages with their dependencies and defines all the object types, data types and enumerations with all their interrelations. It gives a list of all vodml-id element identifiers, cross linked to their definition in the document.

It is derived from the formal VO-DML representation of the Simulation Data Model using the VO-DML XSLT generation tools. The VO-DML document is similarly derived from a UML diagram, designed using MagicDraw Community Edition 12.1, serialised to this XMI document. A PNG version of that model can be found here.

This document accompanies the "Simulation Data Model" recommendation which gives a general overview of the model, its background, goals and issues. That document is available under the following link:
