The inheritance of the implementation of a parent element—that is, its structure (such as attributes and operations) and its code (such as methods). By contrast, interface inheritance involves inheritance of interface specifications (that is, operations) but not methods or data structure (attributes and associations). Implementation inheritance (the normal meaning of generalization in UML) includes the inheritance of both interface and implementation.
