Notes

The above is a second (v2) attempt at modeling this use-case.

  • A new diagramming style is used--it is more compact at representing the literal attributes of an Entity within a single rectangular box.
  • The entire use case now fits on one diagram (just barely!)
  • The new group higgins:subject sub-attribute is now being used
  • A new selfInstanceOf higgins:subject sub-attribute is now being used
  • See HOWL Update 1.1.104 for related changes to support this use case

The problem found last week remains. These two dimensions of "resource scoping" are orthogonal and both must be specified:

  1. what Attribute type(s) the Policy is talking about
  2. the set of Entities that the Policy is talking about

The problem is that ex:p[1-3]'s :read and :modify links all "point" to an Attribute type, but these links don't indicate what set of Entities we're talking about since one Attribute type may be used by N Entity classes.
