2  Known Errors

2.1  Known errors as of 6 November 2002

• Section 3.3: Examples
  • The MathML equation in Figure 4 is incorrect. The MathML <minus> element is a unary or binary operator, and not an n-ary operator as used here. Furthermore, the MathML equation does not match equation 1 shown in the text.

2.2  Known errors as of 24 April 2002

• Section 3.4.6: The <map_variables> element
  • A variable with a private_interface attribute of "in" must be mapped to a single variable owned by a component in the encapsulated set, provided the target variable has a public_interface attribute value of "out".

2.3  Known errors as of 26 February 2002

• Section 4.3: Examples
  • Figure 6 has three units definitions, not two.
• Section 5.2.7: Equation dimension checking
  • Spelling error: interoperability.
• Section 8: Metadata Framework
  • The W3C RDF Core Working Group published a new document in December of 2001 updating RDF syntax (RDF/XML Syntax Specification (Revised)). The new working draft recommends that all attributes belonging to the RDF namespace be clarified with the prefix associated with the RDF namespace (with the rdf prefix in CellML). Thus, all about attributes mentioned should have the rdf prefix.
  • Minor grammatical errors in Sections 8.4.1 and 8.4.2.
