Existence is one constraint statement that can be made using ADL/AOM about attributes in a reference model. In ADL as statement will look something like:

Code Block
borderStylesolid
titleADL - mandatory existence of an attributeborderStylesolid
ELEMENT matches
{
   value existence matches {1} matches*
}

This indicates that the value attribute has to be present. In fact, to this point such statements do not occur in ADL; only statements that an attributes existence is optional occur.
