Unified Modeling Language (UML)
The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a standard visual modeling
language intended to be used for: • modeling business and similar processes. • analysis, design, and implementation of software-based systems.
UML is a standard modeling language, not a software development process:
• provides guidance as to the order of a team’s activities. • specifies what artifacts should be developed. • directs the tasks of individual developers and the team as a whole. • offers criteria for monitoring and measuring a project’s products and activities. Classification of UML Diagrams • UML specification defines two major kinds of UML diagrams: structure diagrams and behavior diagrams.
• Structure diagrams show the static structure of the system and
its parts on different abstraction and implementation levels and how they are related to each other. • The elements in a structure diagram represent the meaningful concepts of a system and may include abstract, real-world, and implementation concepts. • Behavior diagrams show the dynamic behavior of the objects in a system, which can be described as a series of changes to the system over time.
