Hierarchical Member | Abstract A Hierarchical Member is an Aggregate Member that is also a Block Lexical Scope for the Building Block it aggregates: it relates its aggregated block by nesting (see Nesting Relationship). Hierarchical Members are used to build hierarchical structures of Building Blocks, in constrast to Block Members which are used to build network structures of Building Blocks. |

Building Block | Abstract A Building Block is an autonomous, Entity Element that contributes to the makeup of other Building Blocks. Building Blocks can be either reusable entities (packaged in Containers) or be local to the Aggregate Block that references them (see Block Lexical Scope and Hierarchical Member). Examples: - Functionality(ies), Business Process(es), Data Entity(ies), Tags, ARE Building Blocks. - Process Steps or Attributes of a data entity ARE NOT Building Blocks. They are members on an internal structure (see Aggregate Member). |
