 * An ExternalDefinition is the result of the translation of a certain external source containing

 * through a {@link ProcessDefinitionTranslator}. This ExternalDefinition will then in its turn be used
 * by the {@link GraphLoader} to create a {@link Graph} through the {@link GraphFactory}.
 * The default kind of external source is an XML file containing <external> tags.
