*
* <!-- begin-model-doc -->
* Each connector may be attached to two or more connectable elements, each representing a set of instances. Each connector end is distinct in the sense that it plays a distinct role in the communication realized over a connector. The communications realized over a connector may be constrained by various constraints (including type constraints) that apply to the attached connectable elements.
* In the metamodel, a connector kind attribute is added to the Connector metaclass. Its value is an enumeration type with valid values 'assembly' or 'delegation'.
