The outcome of the policy base consultation together with the <br />object status determine the correct action required to make the object mass <br />balance Itsen. The status of the object describes whether or not the object has <br />been active before or within the time step, and which variable in the mass balance <br />equation is missing or has received a new value. - <br /> <br />1,6 Input/Output Tables: <br /> <br />InpuVoutput tables are non-water objects that can contain time-series or user time <br />series input and/or output data. Data can include anything that is being simulated <br />or that is needed for the simulation. These tables can be linked to various water <br />objects. A link from a table to a water object transfers data from the table to the <br />water object. A link from a water Object to a table transfers data from the water <br />object to the table. Rgure 2 illustrates some connections between time-series <br />table objects and water objects via the information communication links. Unlinked <br />tables may be used to provide input data for the policy base only. <br /> <br />1.7 Information Communication Links <br /> <br />links in RSS maintain data and operation functions or methods, Usually, the oper- <br />ations perlormed by links simply transfer data from a table or a water objec\,)o <br />another table or water object, as shown in Figure 2.
