Category:Variable

This category uses the form VariableForm.

Types

There are four types: driver, model, parameter, external model. An integrity test should be written her to check the consistency

• drivers are external model variables that are used for the core models. Constraint: may not occur in the range of hasOutputVar property
• parameters are variables that are rather static and mostly used as input for one modelcomponent; Constraint: may not occur in the range of hasOutputVar property
• model variables are variables that are calculated by a model or impact component, Some are used as input for another model component, others are final output. Constraint: must occur in the range of hasOutputVar property
• external model variables are variables that originates from external models (or databases) and are used in the impact components. Constraint: may not occur in the range of hasOutputVar property
