Introduction

The binding of terminology to information models is specified in the Core Principles normative specification. The definition includes a rich set of components and controls to enable both the flexibility needed for implementing a standard widely and the precision control necessary for well-defined conformance and predictability. There are a small number of mandatory components for simple use cases, but large number of optional components to handle more complex corner cases.

Components

The key components of vocabulary binding are:

  • A Vocabulary Declaration, metadata associated with a coded model element
  • One or more Value Set Assertions, which is a collection of conformance and constraint parameters for vocabulary
  • Concept Domain, a named semantic category for binding
  • Binding Realm, a coded and named jurisdiction which specifies some terminology binding for that jurisdiction
