UML logo. The unified modeling language (UML) is a general-purpose visual modeling language that is intended to provide a standard way to visualize the design of a system. [1] UML provides a standard notation for many types of diagrams which can be roughly divided into three main groups: behavior diagrams, interaction diagrams, and structure ...
The systems modeling language (SysML) [1] is a general-purpose modeling language for systems engineering applications. It supports the specification, analysis, design, verification and validation of a broad range of systems and systems-of-systems. SysML was originally developed by an open source specification project, and includes an open ...
In software engineering, a sequence diagram[1] shows process interactions arranged in time sequence. This diagram depicts the processes and objects involved and the sequence of messages exchanged as needed to carry out the functionality. Sequence diagrams are typically associated with use case realizations in the 4+1 architectural view model of ...
In software engineering, a class diagram[ 1 ] in the Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a type of static structure diagram that describes the structure of a system by showing the system's classes, their attributes, operations (or methods), and the relationships among objects.
A component diagram allows verification that a system's required functionality is acceptable. These diagrams are also used as a communication tool between the developer and stakeholders of the system. Programmers and developers use the diagrams to formalize a roadmap for the implementation, allowing for better decision-making about task ...
Applications of UML. UML (Unified Modeling Language) is a modeling language used by software developers. [1] UML can be used to develop diagrams and provide users (programmers) with ready-to-use, expressive modeling examples. [note 1] Some UML tools generate program language code from UML. [2] UML can be used for modeling a system independent ...
An actor [1] in the Unified Modeling Language (UML) "specifies a role played by a user or any other system that interacts with the subject." [1] "An Actor models a type of role played by an entity that interacts with the subject (e.g., by exchanging signals and data), but which is external to the subject." [2]
UML state machine is an object-based variant of Harel statechart, [2] adapted and extended by UML. [1][3] The goal of UML state machines is to overcome the main limitations of traditional finite-state machines while retaining their main benefits. UML statecharts introduce the new concepts of hierarchically nested states and orthogonal regions ...
