A set of business rules captured in such a set of structures is a "model" of a particular business (or part of it) and is an "instance of the metamodel". In MOF terms, the Business Rules Metamodel consists of two major components: *'Abstract syntax', which presents the linguistic elements of a business rule, together with their properties and relationships, as a UML class diagram, using MOF 2.0. *'Static semantics': well-formedness rules for constructing a meaningful population of the abstract syntax model, stated as constraints on the meta-classes, the meta-associations (relationships), and the meta-attribute values (properties). These constraints are usually stated in OCL.
