BehaviorDesignates a BehavioralFeature that the Behavior implements. The BehavioralFeature
must be owned by the BehavioredClassifier that owns the Behavior or be
inherited by it. The Parameters of the BehavioralFeature and the implementing
Behavior must match. A Behavior does not need to have a specification,
in which case it either is the classifierBehavior of a BehavioredClassifier
or it can only be invoked by another Behavior of the Classifier.
