Class UML 2.5::Realization
Description:
Realization is a specialized Abstraction relationship between two sets of model Elements, one representing a specification (the supplier) and the other represents an implementation of the latter (the client). Realization can be used to model stepwise refinement, optimizations, transformations, templates, model synthesis, framework composition, etc.Direct Superclasses: AbstractionDirect Subclasses: Substitution, InterfaceRealization, ComponentRealizationClass Precedence List: Realization, Abstraction, Dependency, DirectedRelationship, Relationship, PackageableElement, ParameterableElement, NamedElement, ElementProperties:
mapping : OpaqueExpression (0 1); -- source AbstractionAn OpaqueExpression that states the abstraction relationship between the
supplier(s) and the client(s). In some cases, such as derivation, it is
usually formal and unidirectional; in other cases, such as trace, it is
usually informal and bidirectional. The mapping expression is optional
and may be omitted if the precise relationship between the Elements is
not specified.{composite}
