A collection template describes the Pattern Expression, or the used patterns that describe the collection.

A collection description is the formalization combined with the Pattern Expression, that documents the used patterns and the rationalizations upon which the template is based.

So the abstraction layers is:

• Pattern expression -- The general, and yet formalized, description of the process and thoughts that forms the basis of the collection architecture. with references to a series of connected patterns.

• Collection description -- A short, more technical, description of the elements that form the collection.

• Technical/Collection formalization -- The actual DOMS collection described. This should be represented in the best possible way, it can be a diagram, it can also be represented by a XML file, or parts thereof. Other descriptive measures should also be considered.
