The Pipe and Filter ontology contains a single object property for relating Processors to one another. That is the Pipe property. Pipe is an asymmetric property. A Pipe transports data values from one Processor – the domain of the property -- to another – the range of the property. Although the semantics implied by these descriptions is far too vague to create interesting models, it is sufficient to motivate several topology rules that distinguish syntactically well-formed models from syntactically ill-formed (or incomplete) models. The primary purpose of this tutorial is to demonstrate the programming of an analyzer that checks these topology rules and uses the feedback capabilities of the Briefing Associate (BA) to graphically report the results of the analysis. In addition to a topology analysis, the tutorial walks through the implementation of a latency analysis. The latency analysis demonstrates the use of a datatype property of the classes. For this purpose it suffices to
