* A Composite Role is a special Role Descriptor that relates to more then one Role. It represents a grouping of Roles with the main purpose of simplification, i.e. reducing the number of roles for a process.
* A Composite Role is a grouping of Roles that can be used in an Activity or Process to reduce the number of Roles. A typical application would be a process for a small team in which a standard set of roles from the method content would be all performed by one or more resource. By using Composite Role the process would suggest a typical clustering of Roles to Resources. A Composite Role could perform all Tasks defined for the Roles it refers to.
