Target  Bounded AggregateAbstract
Bounded Aggregate is an Aggregate Entity Block which hides its internal structure to the outside world by means of formal Borders.
The only way to access a  Bounded Aggregate is through its formal Borders, which ensures the aggregate's internal consistency.
The Borders of a  Bounded Aggregate is determined by the Connection Relationships it can participate to.
Within a  Bounded Aggregate structure, Bounded Members can be linked together through  Connectors.
The nature of  Connectors is given by their associated Connection Relationship.
Examples:
- Action Processes are bounded by their start and end events (see Behavioral Event).
- Applications are bounded by their APIs borders (API Service Point and API Request Point).
