 Collaboration Diagram in the Business Object Model
 Collaboration Diagram in the Business Object Model
| Guidelines:
  | 
|  Collaboration Diagram | A collaboration
    diagram describes a pattern of interaction among objects; it shows
    the objects participating in the interaction by their links to each other and the messages that they send to each other. | 
A collaboration diagram is semantically identical to a sequence diagram (see Guidelines:
Sequence Diagram in the Business Object Model) but focuses on the objects, while the latter focuses on the interactions.
A collaboration diagram should present the subset
of objects relevant to the affected working sequence, including their links,
messages, and message sequences.
