Frank,
My vote is to be consistent with the convention we used in the
RM, which, if I remember correctly, was to use bold on first instance of a
concept and lower case in future instances.
That said, I also noticed we are not consistent in how we
define terms. In some cases we re-state the term followed by text
definition. In other cases, we just provide the text definition and not
re-state the term. For example, for View in Section 1 (and other related
concepts), we show View in bold text and on the definition line, we state "A
representation of the whole system...". Whereas, in Section 3, we define
terms like Agent by showing the Agent in bold text and on the definition line,
we state "An agent is ...". Again, we should adopt a convention and use it
consistently throughout the RA.
Cheers...
