How are replacements in the target model handled?

This complex conflict corresponds to the conflict Replacement in target model. This complex conflict consists of a group conflict that contains objects added by the transformation and that occurs close to another, inverse group conflict, in which the modeler has added objects connected to each other in the target model. Here, 'close' means that the two involved group conflicts adjoin the same items not involved in the group conflict. These items are called border items. If such conflict groups with the same border items exist, a replacement in the target model probably took place.

In the graphic, the object F2b with its incoming and outgoing connections was added to the target model, and the connection from F2 to the end event End was added by the transformation. The conflict is highlighted in red.

Replacement in target model

Depending on the decision, the graphic displays the resulting models after conflict resolution. The complex conflict consists of group conflicts. Both conflict groups are hierarchically categorized as subordinate conflicts below the replacement conflict. Each group has subordinate simple conflicts.
