Generic Relationships for SAIF Information models.
         Only the content appearing below in black font will appear in the inclusion.
These elements are intended to appear under the following section:

Relationships and traceability

• This model and its attributes must be bound to content from a specific "abstract" data type model formally adopted by HL7.
  • Rationale: The data structures that derive from the RIM draw much of their "type" information from data types assigned to RIM attributes.
• This model and its encoded attributes must be bound to content from a specific Vocabulary Model.
  • Rationale: Over 40 per-cent of RIM-derived attributes carry encoded values. The expected terminology binding for those attributes must be carefully defined.
• Traceability of model content (perhaps via the "derived from" model) to content expressed in a Conceptual Information Model from the relevant domain or project.
  • Rationale: Provide traceability from project requirements expressed in a Conceptual Data Model to their realization as part of the model(s) in the PIM and PSM layers.
