11179-objectClass
objectClass
:
A
concept
that
represents
a
set
of
ideas,
abstractions,
or
things
in
the
real
world
that
can
be
identified
with
explicit
boundaries
and
meaning
and
whose
properties
and
behavior
follow
the
same
rules.
It
may
be
either
a
single
concept
or
a
group
of
associated
concepts,
abstractions,
or
things.
11179-objectClassProperty
objectClassProperty
:
A
quality
common
to
all
members
of
an
object
class.
A
property
may
be
any
feature
that
humans
naturally
use
to
distinguish
one
individual
object
from
another.
It
is
the
human
perception
of
a
single
quality
of
an
object
class
in
the
real
world.
It
is
conceptual
and
thus
has
no
particular
associated
means
of
representation
by
which
the
property
can
be
communicated.
11179-permitted-value-valueset
permitted-value-valueset
:
Allows
expressing
the
value
set
that
must
be
stored
internally
by
the
system
(as
distinct
from
the
base
value
set
which
defines
values
for
exchange).
11179-permitted-value-conceptmap
permitted-value-conceptmap
:
Expresses
the
linkage
between
the
internal
codes
used
for
storage
and
the
codes
used
for
exchange.
