== Introduction ==
 
This page describes the Higgins concept of [[Attribute Model]]
 
  
== Definition ==
 
* Defines the type(s) of the value(s) of an [[Attribute]] (e.g. "string" or "calendar-event")
 
* May define the minimum cardinality of an [[Attribute]]--the minimum number of values that are allowed (e.g. >=3 values)
 
* May define the maximum cardinality of an [[Attribute]]--the minimum number of values that are allowed (e.g. <=100 values)
 
 
=== Attribute Value Model (AVM) (e.g. directory string)===
 
* May specialize:
 
** a base XML Schema type (e.g. String) for literal AVMs
 
** OR a complex AVM
 
** OR another AVM
 
* Defines a set of constraints on its value(s) including:
 
** Value must be one of {"red", "green", "blue"}
 
** Syntax constraints (e.g. regular expression)
 
** ranges (e.g. less than 5, more than 100)
 
** matching rules
 
** THIS SECTION NEEDS WORK
