+/**
+ * This interface is implemented by the ModelMBeanInfo for every ModelMBean. An implementation of this interface
+ * must be shipped with every JMX Agent.
+ * <P>
+ * Java resources wishing to be manageable instantiate the ModelMBean using the MBeanServer's
+ * createMBean method.  The resource then sets the ModelMBeanInfo and Descriptors for the ModelMBean
+ * instance. The attributes, operations, and notifications exposed via the ModelMBeanInfo for the
+ * ModelMBean comprise the management interface and are accessible
+ * from MBeans, connectors/adaptors like other MBeans. Through the Descriptors, values and methods in
+ * the managed application can be defined and mapped to attributes and operations of the ModelMBean.
+ * This mapping can be defined during development in a file or dynamically and
+ * programmatically at runtime.
+ * <P>
+ * Every ModelMBean which is instantiated in the MBeanServer becomes manageable:
+ * its attributes, operations, and notifications
+ * become remotely accessible through the connectors/adaptors connected to that MBeanServer.
+ * A Java object cannot be registered in the MBeanServer unless it is a JMX compliant MBean.
+ * By instantiating a ModelMBean, resources are guaranteed that the MBean is valid.
+ *
+ * MBeanException and RuntimeOperationsException must be thrown on every public method.  This allows
+ *  for wrapping exceptions from distributed communications (RMI, EJB, etc.)
