shows how SNOMED CT release files will represent the logical model after the following completion of the transitional processa migration period between July 2018 and July 2019. Note that the only structural change is was the replacement of the

|
with the OWL expression reference set files. The representation of the
of concept definitions is unchanged from the perspective of the release file structure. However, the nature and quality of the inferred relationships will changes as a result of inferences derived from the enhanced definitions represented as axioms in the OWL axiom reference set.

| Inferred Concept Definitions | Each inferred is represented by a set of rows in the release file. Each row in the set that defines a concept, represents a necessary, defining relationship with another concept. The column in the concept file row indicates whether the set of defining relationships is sufficient to define the concept. | 4.2.3 Relationship File Specification |
