The SIDP values that reflect the subjects of a-nodes and c-nodes,
and that, therefore, determine whether they should be merged, can only
be conferred upon them by virtue of their service as the A and C
endpoints of arcs. This RM4TM defines the merging rules for assertions
(see REF: parid0374 5.2.8.2), and conforming TM Applications cannot
violate these rules. Therefore, TM Applications cannot require the
values of the subject identity discrimination properties (SIDPs) of
a-nodes or c-nodes to be conferred upon them on the basis of their
situations as role players (i.e. on the basis of their service as the x
endpoints of Cx arcs).
SIDP values, which determine the subjects of a-nodes and c-nodes,
can only be conferred by service as a-nodes or c-nodes. That such nodes
may also be role players (x endpoints of Cx arcs) may not be used to
confer SIDP values.
