TechnologyProcess
A technology process represents a sequence of technology behaviors that achieves a specific outcome.

A technology process describes internal behavior of a node; for the user of that node, this process is invisible. If its behavior is exposed externally, this is done through one or more technology services. A technology process abstracts from the way it is implemented. Only the necessary behavior is specified. It can use technology objects as input and use or transform these to produce other technology objects as output.

A technology process may realize technology services. Other technology services may serve (be used by) a technology process. A technology process may access technology objects. A node may be assigned to a technology process (which means that this node performs the process). The name of a technology process should clearly identify a series of technology behaviors, e.g. "System boot sequence" or "Replicate database".
