This involves allocation of a structure with the types specified by the template, and initialisation of instance variables with either default values or those provided by the class's constructor function. 2. In logic programming, when unification binds a {logic variable} to some value. 3. In type checking, when type inference binds a {type variable} to some type. 4.

Examples of instantiations would be different images of an object, text translated into English and French or a video and a still image of a museum piece. (2015-02-08)
