SYSML16 — Remove sentences about qualified associations in clause 8.3.1.3

  • Key: SYSML16-300
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: oose Innovative Informatik eG ( Mr. Tim Weilkiens)
  • Summary:

    Remove the sentences

    "Qualified associations, shown in SysML by an open box at the end of an association path with a property name inside, are
    a specialized feature of UML that specifies how a property value can represent an identifier of an associated target. This
    capability, while useful for data modeling, does not seem essential to accomplish any of the SysML requirements for
    support of systems engineering."

    These sentences are partly incorrect (qualified associations are not shown in SysML), cover only an opinion, and could easily lead to misunderstandings. On the other side it only adds a minimal value.
