Semantics

Behavior is implemented by ensembles of Instances that exchange Stimuli within an overall interaction to accomplish a task. To understand the mechanisms used in a design, it is important to see only those Instances and their cooperation involved in accomplishing a purpose or a related set of purposes, projected from the larger system of which they are part of. Such a static construct is called a Collaboration.
