Port Provides (Realizes) Interface
Ports represent interaction points through which a Classifier communicates with its environment.
The Interfaces associated with a Port specify the nature of the interactions that may occur over it. The provided Interfaces of a Port characterize requests to the Classifier that its environment may make through this Port. The owning Classifier must offer the Features owned by the provided Interfaces.
