// <etymology>
// Visibility Equation describes a model for measurements from a
// generic synthesis telescope
// </etymology>
//
// <synopsis> 
// This is responsible for the Measurement Equation of the Generic
// Interferometer due to Hamaker, Bregman and Sault and later extended
// by Noordam, and Cornwell.
//
// See <linkto module="MeasurementEquations">MeasurementEquations</linkto>
// for more details of the form of the VisEquation.
//
// VisEquation provides the following:
// <ul>
// <li> Sorting of calibration terms (VisCals) in the Visibility Equation
// <li> Application of calibration terms to data (via delegation to VisCals)
// <li> Delivery of other evaluations of the VisEquation, e.g., (differentiated) residuals
// </ul>
// </synopsis>

// <example>
// <srcblock>

// <motivation>
// VisEquation is part of a framework of classes that are
// designed for synthesis calibration and imaging. The others are the 
// <linkto module=MeasurementComponents>MeasurementComponents</linkto>.
