All simple and complex types of attribute groups and elements will be listed: explanatory information willbe provided, along with examples if additional clarification is needed. The explanatory information willinclude information on the intended use of the elements and/or attributes where the name of the entity doesnot clearly indicate its intended use. For elements derived from another source type (e.g., an abstract type),only attributes that extend the source type will be listed; details regarding the base type will be listed alongwith the base type.
When referring to an attribute of an XML element, the convention of /element/@/attribute/ will be used.In cases where an attribute name is referred to with no associated element, the attribute name will beenclosed in single quotes. Element and type names will always be italicized when appearing in text.
This trial-use standard uses the vocabulary and definitions of relevant IEEE standards. In case of conflict odefinitions, except for those portions quoted from standards, the following precedence shall be observed!a) Clause 3; b) Annex C; and c) The Authoritative Dictionary ofIEEE Standards Terms (B2.
1.4.2 Precedence
The TestAdapterDescription schema (TestAdapterDescription.xsd) element, child element, and annotationinformation shall take precedence over the descriptive information contained in Clause 4.
The TestAdapterDescription schema and the material contained in Clause 4 shall take precedence over theIestAdapterDescription instance document information represented in Annex A, as well as the exampleinformation represented in Annex B.
The TestAdapterlnstance schema (TestAdapterlnstance.xsd) element, child element, and annotationinformation shall take precedence over the descriptive information contained in Clause 5.
The TestAdapterlnstance schema and the material contained in Clause 4 shall take precedence over theTestAdapterlnstance instance document information represented in Annex A. as well as the exampleinformation represented in Annex B
1.4.3 Word usage
