Class

• <DRM Overload Priority Index>

Superclass

• <DRM SEDRIS Abstract Base>

Subclass

• None.

Definition

An instance of this DRM class specifies an overload management priority to a <DRM Model> instance or to a <DRM Geometry Model Instance> instance. This priority allows a modeller to indicate that certain <DRM Model> instances are more important than others, so that in an overload situation, the more important <DRM Model> instances will be displayed and the <DRM Model> instances of lesser importance may be simplified or dropped from the display. The actual effect of a <DRM Overload Priority Index> instance within an application is entirely dependent on the application.

The overload_priority field is interpreted as 1 = Highest Priority and 2 = Next Highest Priority, and higher numbers are of lower priority.

Constraints

• Publishable object

Example(s)

• In a transmittal designed for a simulation that is more concerned with rotary-winged aircraft than fixed-winged aircraft, each helicopter <DRM Model> instance may have a <DRM Overload Priority Index> component with overload_priority = 1, while each airplane <DRM Model> instance has a <DRM Overload Priority Index> component with overload_priority = 2.
