+ * \file configuration_interface.h
+ * \brief This class represents an interface to configuration parameters.
+ * \author Carlos Aviles, 2010. carlos.avilesr(at)googlemail.com
+ *
+ * The interface defines an accessor method that gets a parameter name as input
+ * and returns the value of this parameter, a string, as output.
+ * Property names are defined here. This is an abstract class for interfaces.
+ * Since all its methods are virtual,
+ * this class cannot be instantiated directly, and a subclass can only be
+ * instantiated directly if all inherited pure virtual methods have been
+ * implemented by that class or a parent class.
