An instance of an association is called a Link. A Link is a tuple with one value for each end of the association, where each value is an instance of the type of the end. Links can be represented in the Relationship Map and Dependency Matrix.

With our modeling tool, you can display on diagrams the following:

• Links created between Instance specifications (the Display Paths command on the Instance specification shortcut menu). 
• Instance specifications at the other end of a Link (the Display Related Elements command on the Instance specification shortcut menu).
