RE: [executableuml] External Entity versus Terminator

Essentially yes. They both represent things that are defined in other domains. Consequently some sort of bridging is called required.

 

To me, the name “External Entity” is more descriptive of what the thing is, whereas the name “Terminator” is more descriptive of how it functions in the current domain.

Subject: [executableuml] External Entity versus Terminator

 

In the two xUML books that I own, i.e. Raistrick et at (the purple
book), and Mellor and Balcer (the white book), it seems that "External
Entity" stereotyped classes and "Terminator" stereotyped classes are
essentially the same thing. Can anyone offer some insight?

Thanks in advance,
