Assumptions I made when writing this page

  1. ElementPart is a class needed for splitting and fusioning NetElements for creating a new Network level. It has no specific role for positioning. Here, AssociatedNetElement is used, as described in the model
  2. Each linear NetElement has an orientation which means it has a beginning and an end, denoted by intrinsicCoordinates 0 and 1. It has to be defined how this orientation is assigned to the NetElement within the model
  3. Each AssociatedNetElement refers to one and only one PositionedNetElement. If this is so, then the association netElements of Linearlocation can be eliminated from the model, since it is covered by the netElements relation of AssociatedNetElement (see class diagram above). The model allows one ore more PositionedNetElement, but in case of more than one, where do the intrinsic coordinates or the parameter keepsOrientation refer to?
  4. The applicationDirection of a SpotLocation refers to the orientation of the netElement of the SpotLocation. In the model it is defined with repect to the "LinearLocation" - might be an error.
