Unified Modeling Language (UML)

The unified modeling language provides one language for describing complex systems.Innovator for Software Architectsuses established notation elements.

With its Unified Modeling Language (UML), the Object Management Group (OMG) provides one language for describing complex systems. UML elements are not displayed linguistically or theoretically.Innovator for Software Architectsuses established notation elements which are also used in the OMG specification.

UML does not set which notation elements can be used in which diagram types. There is, however, an assignment which can be derived from the most likely use of notation elements. This assignment is also taken as the basis of the standard profile included within scope of delivery.

UML basic elements have general characteristics and can be used in all diagrams.

You primarily use the following diagram types when modeling structures in software systems:

Class Diagram

   Component Diagram

You primarily use the following diagram types when modeling behaviors in software systems:

   Use Case Diagram

   Activity Diagram

   State Diagram
