 /**
 23  
  * An assembler that provides assembly and disassembly of business DTO from/to
 24  
  * their base DTO.
 25  
  * 
 26  
  * During disassembly of business DTO, it is required that all implementations
 27  
  * generate the id (if newly created base DTO) from UUID and use that in mapping
 28  
  * relations.
 29  
  * 
 30  
  * Generic Mapping:
 31  
  * E -> Business DTO e.g. CourseInfo
 32  
  * T -> Base DTO e.g. CluInfo
 33  
  * 
 34  
  * It is a good practice to propagate state from the parent objects through to the children
