In Figure 37, an example is given, where Events are used as Notifications. In this case, the log of maintenance activities as defined by Asset Management Basics [8] is used. The EventType X:MaintenanceEventType implements the IMaintenanceEventType defined by Asset Management Basics. The X:MyMachineType provides a GeneratesEvent Reference from its Notifications Object to the X:MaintenanceEventType. For each new maintenance event, or if the status is changing, such an Event is generated.
