The ModelElement kind, represents an abstraction drawn from the system being modeled. Model elements have names and may be associated with a namespace. A distinct id identifies the element in the graph. It may be composed of the element’s name and a number, or take any other form that ensures the id is unique within the definition of the overall graph that contains the element.
Documentation may optionally be associated with model elements, representing comments or other descriptions.
Model elements may also be stereotyped.
