The Anomaly  ABE model employs the commonly used SID EntitySpecification/Entity pattern.  Conceptually, an Anomaly Specification defines the invariant attributes and relationships for defining a set of Anomalies. An Anomaly uses these invariant characteristics and behaviors and adds instance-specific characteristics and behaviors to them such that, by building from a base of standard capabilities, it becomes possible to create unique Anomalies.<br/>The figure below shows the relationship between an AnomalySpecification and an Anamoly.<br/>
