TRAK UML Profile Files

The TRAK.xml file is a bare bones UML profile for a UML modelling tool. It provides the objects (stereotypes) and relationships that form the metamodel for The Rail Architecture Framework (TRAK). 

It is an implementation of the logical definition of TRAK and as such may include limitations of this architecture description language, UML, used to represent TRAK (in addition to any errors). 

As an implementation it is governed by the specification 'TRAK. Implementation. Architecture Description Elements' (https://sourceforge.net/projects/trak/files/Implement%20TRAK/trak_implementation_ADelements.pdf/download) which specifies the names, values in enumerated lists


Defining TRAK Documents
=======================
TRAK is defined by 3 documents.

The top level TRAK definition is at https://sf.net/p/trak. This describes important ideas, choice of architecture description language, colour rules, bye laws, conformance with TRAK and the minimal modelling process. It invokes the following 2 documents:

The TRAK architecture view definitions (architecture viewpoints) are available at https://sf.net/p/trakviewpoints

The TRAK metamodel is available at https://sf.net/p/trakmetamodel. This defines the architecture description element types (stereotypes) and relationships that are implemented by this UML profile.

Implementation of TRAK in Tools
- TRAK. Implementation Architecture Descriptions Elements. https://sourceforge.net/projects/trak/files/Implement%20TRAK/ (defines how the logical definition of TRAK is to be implemented in any tool)
