The StatisticType defines the structure of an Object of StatisticType. Figure 18 shows the hierarchical structure and details of the composition. It is formally defined in Table 23.
The StatisticType is a container for the different statistic values. All variables are optional so that the statistics can be instantiated in an application-specific way. The StatisticType can be instantiated with parent nodes (e.g., ScaleDeviceType, …). Parent nodes other than those described in this Companion Specification are possible.
