«Subsystem»

Stereotype of the Component metaclass of the UML standard profile.

Subsystem is a unit of hierarchical decomposition for large systems. A subsystem is commonly instantiated indirectly. Definitions of subsystems vary widely among domains and methods, and it is expected that domain and method profiles will specialize this construct. A subsystem may be defined to have specification and realization elements.
