A Technology Collaboration represents an aggregate of two or more technology internal active structure elements that work together to perform collective technology behavior.

A Technology Collaboration specifies which Nodes cooperate to perform some task. The collaborative behaviouris modeled by a Technology Interaction. A Technology Collaboration typically models a logical or temporary collaboration of Nodes, and does not exist as a separate entity in the enterprise.

Technology Collaboration is a specialization of technology internal active structure element, and aggregates two or more (cooperating) Nodes and/or other Technology Collaborations. A Technology Collaboration may be assigned to one or more Technology Interactions or other technology internal behaviour elements, which model the associated behaviour. A technology interface may serve a Technology Collaboration, and a Technology Collaboration may be composed of Technology Interfaces.

The name of a Technology Collaboration should preferably be a noun.
