The set of BEOs can be seen as abstractions of the computational design. The resulting description hides distinctions between objects with similar communications requirements, and retaining only the information about the computational objects that characterizes them as users of the distribution platform being provided. Therefore, the BEO is the primary object to be placed on a particular node, and which initiates communication across the network. All other engineering objects are secondary elements defined in a EV an Architectural Model (Draft), whose goal is to provide the functions necessary to support distribution. This includes a variety of supporting objects, like repositories or directories, which are drawn from a set of common functions called ODP functions Footnote03.
