Class UML 2.4.1::Dependency
Description:
A dependency is a relationship that signifies that a single or a set of
model elements requires other model elements for their specification or
implementation. This means that the complete semantics of the depending
elements is either semantically or structurally dependent on the definition
of the supplier element(s).

NamedElementA name which allows the NamedElement to be identified within a hierarchy
of nested Namespaces. It is constructed from the names of the containing
namespaces starting at the root of the hierarchy and ending with the name
of the NamedElement itself.
