package

Definitions within a package are made visible to a system definition or other package definitions by a package-reference-clause (use clause). All (or selected) definitions of packages provided in this way will be visible in the system definition (or in the new package).

A package diagram has this form:

 

A package can be used either either in the definition of a new
package, or as here, a system. This is done by the use clause.
