Dear Open Specification Writers,

while having a quick look at different Open Specifications in the private Wiki I noticed that there is some confusion according to the meaning FMC block diagrams.

Please have a look at this cheat sheet. The semantics is actually very simple. However, it would be nice if we can use it consistently across the different Specs.

So for example:

*       The dotted rounded rectangle means: structure variance (parts of the diagram can be there multiple times, sometimes controlled by an agent.)
*       If you want to subsume parts of the diagram you should us a plain border box (maybe with a light grey background)
*       The R with a small arrow means an RPC-like semantics of a channel between two components (agents)
*       Two components can only be connected via a channel. (no direct lines between them)
*       A component (agent) can read/write from/to a storage (without a channel in between)


Best regards,

Torsten
