Overload Priority Index

The SEDRIS Data Representation Model APPENDIX A - Classes Overload Priority Index

Class Name: Overload Priority Index

Superclass - <SEDRIS Abstract Base>

Subclasses

This DRM class is concrete and has no subclasses.

Definition

An instance of this DRM class specifies an overload management priority to a <Model> instance or to a <Geometry Model Instance> instance. This priority allows a modeller to indicate that certain <Model> instances are more important than others, so that in an overload situation, the more important <Model> instances will be displayed and the <Model> instances of lesser importance may be simplified or dropped from the display. The actual effect of an <Overload Priority Index> instance within an application is entirely dependent on the application.

Example

In a transmittal designed for a simulation that is more concerned with rotary-winged aircraft than fixed-winged aircraft, each helicopter <Model> instance may have an <Overload Priority Index> component with overload_priority = 1, while each airplane <Model> instance has an <Overload Priority Index> component with overload_priority = 2.
