Mantis items in progress

Mantis 5372

Anupam: What language is more appropriate: "shall" or "should"?

Erik: "shall" is consistent with what was written earlier.

Shalom: If clock ticks twice in the same simulation step, how many ticks do we have? Even it is not allowed to a clock to tick twice.

Ed, Shalom: Simulation step is not defined in the LRM.

Dmitry: This is SV-BC area, they need to define this term.

Ed, Anupam: Downgrade “shall” to “should”, and mark that if there are several occurrences of the clocking event at the same tick, the behavior is undefined
