SoftwareIdentity represents software, viewed as an asset and/or individually identifiable entity (similar to Physical Element). It does NOT indicate whether the software is installed, executing, etc. (The latter is the role of the SoftwareFeature/ SoftwareElement classes and the Application Model.) Since software may be acquired, SoftwareIdentity can be associated with a Product using the ProductSoftwareComponent relationship. Note that the Application Model manages the deployment and installation of software via the classes, SoftwareFeatures and SoftwareElements. The deployment/installation concepts are related to the asset/identity one. In fact, a SoftwareIdentity may correspond to a Product, or to one or more SoftwareFeatures or SoftwareElements - depending on the granularity of these classes and the deployment model. The correspondence of Software Identity to Product, SoftwareFeature or SoftwareElement is indicated using the ConcreteIdentity association. Note that there may not be sufficient detail or instrumentation to instantiate ConcreteIdentity. And, if the association is instantiated, some duplication of information may result. For example, the Vendor described in the instances of Product and SoftwareIdentity MAY be the same. However, this is not necessarily true, and it is why vendor and similar information are duplicated in this class. Note that ConcreteIdentity can also be used to describe the relationship of the software to any LogicalFiles that result from installing it. As above, there may not be sufficient detail or instrumentation to instantiate this association.
