A multiple object signifies that the classifier
role has a set of operations and signals that addresses the entire
set of objects, not just a single object. In other words, the classifier
role represents a set of objects that share a common purpose in the
scenario or use case described by the collaboration diagram.
A
multiple object can represent multiple instances of one or more classes
or object types that share a common purpose in the scenario. As with
an object, a multiple object can be <Unspecified> in
this representation.
