Allocate is a stereotype of a UML4SysML::Abstraction that is permissible between any two NamedElements. It is depicted as a dependency with the "allocate" keyword attached to it.

It is expected that an «allocate» relationship between model elements is a precursor to a more concrete relationship between the elements, their properties, operations, attributes, or sub-classes.
Full quote
Allocate is a stereotype of a UML4SysML::Abstraction that is permissible between any two NamedElements. It is depicted as a dependency with the "allocate" keyword attached to it.
Next snippet
Allocate is directional in that one NamedElement is the "from" end (no arrow), and one NamedElement is the "to" end (the end with the arrow).

Allocate is a dependency based on UML::Abstraction. It is a mechanism for associating elements of different types, or in different hierarchies, at an abstract level. Allocate is used for assessing user model consistency and directing future design ...

Allocation is the term used by systems engineers to denote the organized cross-association (mapping) of elements within the various structures or hierarchies of a user model.
The concept of “allocation” requires flexibility suitable for abstract system specification, rather than a particular constrained method of system or software design.
System modelers often associate various elements in a user model in abstract, preliminary, and sometimes tentative ways. Allocations can be used early in the design as a precursor to more detailed rigorous specifications and implementations.
The allocation relationship can provide an effective means for navigating the model by establishing cross relationships, and ensuring the various parts of the model are properly integrated.
... does not try to limit the use of the term “allocation,” but provides a basic capability to support allocation in the broadest sense. It does include some specific subclasses of allocation for allocating behavior, structure, and flows.
A typical example is the allocation of activities to blocks (e.g., functions to components)
