YYYY.3.3.2.3 Parallel Production

As another example, consider an application producing an Inventory in parallel across several independent federated storage subsystems. It tasks each subsystem to produce an Inventory SOP Instance, and itself produces a SOP Instance that links to each of the subsystem Inventories (see Figure YYYY.3-5). Note that the Scope of Inventory will be the same for all objects, but the Equipment identifiers will differ.
