Taxonomy of Inconsistency Patterns in Multi-View Modelling
Case `DHI19-2`

Source: Feldmann2019
Categories: C2 (primary); C1 (secondary)
Domain: automated production systems; electrics models
Views: inter- and intra-model electrical interface descriptions
Artefacts: connectors; electric interfaces; bus interfaces
Quotes: "Connector does not point from input to output interface or vice versa"; "Connector does not point from bus interface to compatible bus interface"
Summary: A connector links interfaces in the wrong direction or between incompatible interface kinds.; Cause: interface compatibility and direction constraints are violated.; As a result, invalid integration relation between connected elements.
