Understanding Model Element Relationships

After you have created the three types of elements required for modeling (service actions, action processors and atomic actions), you can define their relationship by linking them. For Activation Network cartridges, the three types of elements are generally in a 1:1:1 relationship. For Activation Service cartridges, the three types of elements are most commonly linked in a 1:1:many or 1:many:many relationship.

See "Modeling ASAP Services" for more information about service models.

Note:

In most cases, you will not use the service models created for Activation Network cartridges in customer specific solutions. For Activation Network cartridges, these elements mainly provide a complete service model that can be used to test the cartridge action processors upon cartridge delivery.
