Abstract Class UML 2.4.1::Behavior
Description:
Behavior is a specification of how its context classifier changes state
over time. This specification may be either a definition of possible behavior
execution or emergent behavior, or a selective illustration of an interesting
subset of possible executions. The latter form is typically used for capturing
examples, such as a trace of a particular execution.A behavior owns zero
or more parameter sets.

ClassDetermines whether an object specified by this class is active or not.
If true, then the owning class is referred to as an active class. If false,
then such a class is referred to as a passive class.

ElementConstraints:
Signature: parameters_match() : Boolean;
Description: The parameters of the behavior must match the parameters of the implemented
behavioral feature.
Expression: true
Signature: must_realize() : Boolean;
Description: If the implemented behavioral feature has been redefined in the ancestors
of the owner of the behavior, then the behavior must realize the latest
redefining behavioral feature.
Expression: true
Signature: most_one_behaviour() : Boolean;
Description: There may be at most one behavior for a given pairing of classifier (as
owner of the behavior) and behavioral feature (as specification of the
behavior).
Expression: true
Signature: feature_of_context_classifier() : Boolean;
Description: The implemented behavioral feature must be a feature (possibly inherited)
of the context classifier of the behavior.
Expression: true
Operations:
No additional operations.
