OSID - osid.inventory.ModelSmartWarehouseSession Service Interface Definition

Interface	osid.inventory.ModelSmartWarehouseSession
Implements	`osid.OsidSession`
Description	This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic catalogs. A `ModelQuery` can be retrieved from this session and mapped to this `CoursOfferingeCatalog` to create a virtual collection of `Models.` The models may be sequenced using the `ModelSearchOrder` from this session. This `Warehouse` has a default query that matches any model and a default search order that specifies no sequencing. The queries may be examined using a `ModelQueryInspector.` The query may be modified by converting the inspector back to a `ModelQuery.`
