The Convention attribute

With the Convention attribute you can indicate that all I/O with respect to identifiers in your model is to take place according to the unit convention specified in this attribute. The value of this attribute must be either a direct reference to a convention declared in your model, an element parameter into the set AllConventions or a string parameter holding the name of a convention within your model.
