SPEM11 — Explicit relationship for WorkProduct composition

Open Closed All
  • Key: SPEM11-1
  • Legacy Issue Number: 4832
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Adaptive ( Mr. Pete Rivett)
  • Summary:

    In 7.1 (Associations): Using UML aggregation to represent WorkProduct
    composition is painful in the metamodel since it requires Association,
    AssociationEnd and Multiplicity objects etc. To link 2 WorkProducts will
    thus take 7 objects (Association, 2 AssociationEnds, 2 Multiplicities, 2
    Ranges) none of which carry any useful information. In contrast,
    WorkDefinition has a direct subWork association.

    Proposed resolution: introduce a new recursive association on WorkProduct
    with ends subWork(0..) and parentWork(0..).
