ISO 10303 is an International Standard for the computer-interpretable
representation of product information and for the exchange of product data.
The objective is to provide a neutral mechanism capable of describing
products throughout their life cycle. This mechanism is suitable not only
for neutral file exchange, but also as a basis for implementing and
sharing product databases, and as a basis
for retention and archiving.
This part of ISO 10303 specifies an application module for the definition of
a boundary representation solid with explicit topology and elementary or free-form geometry.
Clause 1 defines the scope of the
application module and summarizes the functionality and data covered.
Clause 3 lists the words defined in
this part of ISO 10303 and gives pointers to words defined elsewhere.
The information requirements of the application are specified in Clause
4 using terminology appropriate to
the application.
A graphical representation of the information requirements, referred to
as the application reference model, is given in Annex
C.
Resource constructs are interpreted to meet the information
requirements.
This interpretation produces the module interpreted model (MIM).
This interpretation, given in 5.1,
shows the correspondence between the information requirements and the
MIM. The short listing of the MIM specifies the interface to the
resources and is given in 5.2.
A graphical representation of the short listing of the MIM is given
in Annex D.
In ISO 10303, the same English language words can be
used to refer to an object in the real world or concept, and as the
name of an EXPRESS data type that represents this object or concept.
The following typographical convention is used to distinguish between
these. If a word or phrase occurs in the same typeface as narrative
text, the referent is the object or concept. If the word or phrase
occurs in a bold typeface or as a hyperlink, the referent is the
EXPRESS data type.
The name of an EXPRESS data type can be used to refer to the data type
itself, or to an instance of the data type. The distinction between
these uses is normally clear from the context. If there is a likelihood
of ambiguity, either the phrase "entity data type" or "instance(s) of" is
included in the text.
Double quotation marks " " denote quoted text. Single quotation marks ' '
denote particular text string values.
