 The simulation result itself, i.e.\ concrete result numbers, are not stored in SED-ML, but the directive how to calculate them from the output of the simulator is provided through the \hyperref[class:dataGenerator]{dataGenerator}. The encoding of simulation results is not part of SED-ML \currentLV.

+The \DataSet class holds definitions of data to be used in the \Report class (\fig{report}). DataSets are labeled references to instances of the \DataGenerator class.  It defines the required attributes \element{label} of type \element{string} and \element{dataReference} of type \SIdRef.  
 
-Each data set in a \Report must have an unambiguous \element{label}. A \element{label} is a human readable descriptor of a data set for use in a \Report. For example, for a tabular data set of time series results, the \element{label} could be the column heading. 
+Each data set in a \Report must have an unambiguous \element{label}. A \element{label} is a human readable descriptor of a data set for use in a \Report.  In general the Report is a map between labels and data from \DataGenerator instances, but can be interpreted as a data table for certain tasks. For example, in the special case of time series results, the report could be a tabular data set with the \element{label} being the column heading and the time series results being the columns.
