The unified modeling language provides one language for describing complex systems.This notation is the basis for Innovator for Software Architects. Innovator for Business Analysts uses the notation elements from this standard for class diagrams and use case diagrams.
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 Business Analysts uses 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.
Model
Models describe part of the system from a certain point of view in the required detail.
Comment
Comments add information about a model's elements.
Expression
An expression is a structure shown by icons and optional parameters or a language-dependent textual expression for specifying values.
Global Condition
A global condition is a Boolean term which formulates a condition or constraint for precision of semantic of model elements in a natural or machine-readable language.
Data Type, Primitive Type, Enumeration Type, Literal
Data types set limits of value ranges for model elements.
Key Words
Key words are tags which are reserved for textual parts of the graphical notation for graphically describing UML.
You primarily use the following UML diagram types for modeling use cases and business processes:
