Compositional models were initially described for discrete probability theory, and later extended for possibility theory and for belief functions in Dempster-Shafer (D-S) theory of evidence. Valuation-based systems (VBS) can be considered as a generic uncertainty calculus that has many uncertainty calculi, such as probability theory, a version of possibility theory where combination is the product t-norm, Spohn's epistemic belief theory, and D-S belief function theory, as special cases. In this paper, we describe compositional models in the general framework of VBS using the semantics of no-double counting, which is central to the VBS framework. We show that conditioning can be expressed using the composition operator.
