• UML Generalizations define Materiel inheritance ( SV-1 Systems Interface Definition).
• Used as a type for System Port elements.
The following sections provide information about how a Materiel is used in the model.
Create a Materiel from
• Architectural Description
• Materiel
• Service Description
• SV-1 Systems Interface Definition
Create from a Materiel
In addition to the UPDM elements that can be created from all UPDM elements ( Representation, Definition, Information, and Metadata):
• Materiel
