NetworkPipeComposition describes the makeup a pipe, based on lower-level ones. If the pipe is not composed of lower-level entities (i.e., its AggregationBehavior property is set to 2), then no instances of this association should be defined where the pipe has the role of GroupComponent.
In the context of M.3100, this semantic is modeled as a Trail that is made up of one or more Connections. Both Trails and Connections are subclasses of M.3100's Pipe. Because of the flexibility of the NetworkPipeComposition association, there is no need to subclass NetworkPipe, as was done in M.3100, but merely to instantiate this association to describe the bundling of the lower-level pipes (connections), or the sequencing of them. How the lower-level pipes are aggregated is described by the property, AggregationBehavior, of NetworkPipe. If the pipes are combined in a sequence, the ordering is conveyed via the property, AggregationSequence, on this association.
