An AVM Component is a cyber-physical (including exclusively cyber, or exclusively physical) design element, a basic unit that is used for composing Cyber Physical Systems in AVM. A Cyber Physical component, in general, could be composed of many parts and subparts; however, for the purposes of the AVM program and this document, AVM components are considered as basic or atomic (black-box) units, that can be purchased or built. This folder contains the latest standards documents and reference implementations for AVM component models. The elements of this folder define how such components should be modeled and used for design and analysis in AVM / META Tools. A component conformant to the AVM Component specification can be used within the AVM META Tools for the design, exploration, evaluation, and synthesis (manufacturing) of a Cyber Physical System.
