public interface FunctionalVariationPointIF
extends SolutionIF

Functional variation point. Generally, a functional variation point describes a detail of a pattern template. Normally it describes the transfer of a property from source pattern to target pattern, in other cases an arbitrary transformation function. So, the target pattern generated by the pattern template is nearly the same, except of this variation. A variation is necessary, since else each pattern generated by a pattern template would be identical.
