An operation is a SubmodelElement with input and output variables.

In- and output variables are implemented as SubmodelElements directly without the wrapping OperationVariable.

Furthermore, an OperationVariable contains nothing besides a single SubmodelElement anyway, so implementing it would just make using Operations more tedious for no reason.

A submodel element is an element suitable for the description and differentiation of assets.

Note

The concept of type and instance applies to submodel elements. Properties are special submodel elements. The property types are defined in dictionaries (like the IEC Common Data Dictionary or eCl@ss), they do not have a value. The property type (kind=Type) is also called data element type in some standards. The property instances (kind=Instance) typically have a value. A property instance is also called property-value pair in certain standards.

A submodel element list is an ordered list of SubmodelElements. The numbering starts with Zero (0).

Constraint AASd-107: If a first level child element in a SubmodelElementList has a semanticId it shall be identical to SubmodelElementList/semanticIdListElement.

Constraint AASd-114: If two first level child elements in a SubmodelElementList have a semanticId then they shall be identical.

Constraint AASd-115: If a first level child element in a SubmodelElementList does not specify a semanticId, the value is assumed to be identical to SubmodelElementList/semanticIdListElement.

Constraint AASd-108: All first level child elements in a SubmodelElementList shall have the same submodel element type as specified in SubmodelElementList/typeValueListElement.

Constraint AASd-109: If SubmodelElementList/typeValueListElement is equal to Property or Range, SubmodelElementList/valueTypeListElement shall be set and all first level child elements in the SubmodelElementList shall have the value type as specified in SubmodelElementList/valueTypeListElement.

Variables:

id_short – Identifying string of the element within its name space. (inherited from Referable)
type_value_list_element – The SubmodelElement type of the submodel elements contained in the list.
value – SubmodelElements contained in the list. The list is ordered.
semantic_id_list_element – Semantic ID of the SubmodelElements contained in the list to match to.
value_type_list_element – The value type of the submodel element contained in the list.
order_relevant – Defines whether order in list is relevant. If False the list is representing a set or a bag. Default: True
display_name – Can be provided in several languages. (inherited from Referable)
category – The category is a value that gives further meta information w.r.t. to the class of the element. It affects the expected existence of attributes and the applicability of constraints. (inherited from Referable)
description – Description or comments on the element. (inherited from Referable)
parent – Reference to the next referable parent element of the element. (inherited from Referable)
semantic_id – Identifier of the semantic definition of the element. It is called semantic id of the element. The semantic id may either reference an external global id or it may reference a referable model element of kind=Type that defines the semantics of the element. (inherited from HasSemantics)
qualifier – Unordered list of Qualifiers that gives additional qualification of a qualifiable element. (from Qualifiable)
extension – An extension of the element. (inherited from basyx.aas.model.base.HasExtension)
supplemental_semantic_id – Identifier of a supplemental semantic definition of the element. It is called supplemental semantic ID of the element. (inherited from HasSemantics)
embedded_data_specifications – List of Embedded data specification.
