About This Book Publisher:O'Reilly Pub Date: June 2005 Welcome to UMLISBN: 2.0 0-596-00795-7 in a Nutshell The Unified Modeling Language (UML) has expanded quite Pages:234 a bit since its inception and can be applied to many different domains, however it still has its roots in software development We have tried to make this book applicable to as broad an audience as possible, but it's helpful to have at least a cursory knowledge of Object Oriented Table of Contents | (OOP) Index Programming because UML draws much of its terminology from that domain Before going any further we'd like to clarify how this book refers to the Unified Modeling Language Grammatically speaking, "the languages UML" is correct However, it sounds weird This book System developers have used modeling for decades to specify, visualize, uses the more colloquial "UML" construct, and document systems The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is one of those languages UML makes it possible for team members to collaborate by providing a common UML 2.0 in that a Nutshell reference for the UML 2.0 Superstructure, fromyou a user's language appliesistoa adetailed multitude of different systems Essentially, it enables to perspective Whenever it would be helpful to clarify a UML concept with a concrete example, communicate solutions in a consistent, tool-supported language we will present Java code Today, UML has become the standard method for modeling software systems, which means In general we assume that you are familiar with OOP and the type of constructs that go with you're probably confronting this rich and expressive language more than ever before And it (classes, methods, inheritance, etc.) However, we make no assumptions about what you even though you may not write UML diagrams yourself, you'll still need to interpret know about UML Each chapter starts with a top-to-bottom discussion of the chapter's topic diagrams written by others This will be fast paced and thorough, meant for those who understand the basics and want to know the "nitty-gritty" of a piece of UML Subsequent sections are kinder, gentler discussions UML 2.0 in a Nutshell from O'Reilly feels your pain It's been crafted for professionals like of the topic This includes examples that show how the topic may be applied to typical you who must read, create, and understand system artifacts expressed using UML problems, help you further refine your models to eliminate ambiguity, capture details that Furthermore, it's been fully revised to cover version 2.0 of the language might otherwise be lost, or add information to your model that aids in tool-based development This comprehensive new edition not only provides a quick-reference to all UML 2.0 diagram types, it also explains key concepts in a way that appeals to readers already familiar with A brief word of warning: UML has a strict terminology for just about every aspect of modeling UML or object-oriented programming concepts This is necessary to reduce ambiguity and confusion as much as possible However, in everyday use some terms are used interchangeably with others that have completely different Topics include: meanings in UML A classic example of this is operation and method These are frequently treated as being synonymous in a software development environment but have different meanings used in the context of UML We will make a point to use the correct UML term The when role and value of UML in projects even if it may not be the most colloquial name The object-oriented paradigm and its relation to the UML An

diagrams build on concepts from others Chapter 1, Fundamentals of UML, covers the basics of UML and presents some background information that will help you understand the context for the rest of the book If you are familiar with previous versions of UML, you can probably Table ofthis Contents | Index If you don't have a strong background in UML, you should definitely start skim chapter here The next developers set of chapters is called static modeling in UML Static visualize, modeling captures System havecover used what modeling languages for decades to specify, the physical structure of a piece of software (as much as software has a "physical" construct, and document systems The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is one of structure) those For example:UML what operations and attributes a class contains, what interfaces a class realizes, languages makes it possible for team members to collaborate by providing a common or what packages contain this mess staticsystems

write UML diagrams yourself, you'll still need to interpret This chapter introduces the class diagram It discusses the various elements that can be diagrams written by others used on a class diagram, what they represent, and how to extend them Because class diagrams are often a centerpiece of a UML model, you should know this chapter inside UML 2.0 in a Nutshell from O'Reilly feels your pain It's

UML UML model and how the diagrams are typically mapped to code Furthermore, it's been fully revised to cover version 2.0 of the language This comprehensive new edition not only provides a quick-reference to all UML 2.0 diagram Chapter 3, Package Diagrams types, it also explains key concepts in a way that appeals to readers already familiar with UML or object-oriented programming This chapter introduces packagesconcepts and grouping within a UML model Topics include: Chapter 4, Composite Structures The role and introduces value of UML projects This chapter theinnew UML 2.0 concept of composite structures Composite structures are specifically designed to represent patterns and are a major new The object-oriented paradigm and its relation to the UML component to the modeling language An integrated approach to UML diagrams Chapter 5, Component Diagrams Class and Object, Use Case, Sequence, Collaboration, Statechart, Activity, Component, and Deployment Diagrams This chapter introduces components and the component diagram Topics such as the stereotypes used in component diagrams, relationships between components, and Extension Mechanisms component metainformation are discussed The latter part of this chapter discusses how components are typically realized in a programming language The Object Constraint Language (OCL) Chapter 6, Deployment Diagrams If you're new to UML, a tutorial with realistic examples has even been included to help you This chapter introduces the concept of capturing system deployment using deployment quickly familiarize yourself with the system diagrams Deployment fundamentals such as nodes, node stereotypes, and relationships to components are explained This chapter also includes a discussion on modeling a distributed system using deployment diagrams The next set of chapters cover the second half of UMLbehavioral modeling Behavioral modeling captures how the various elements of a system interact during execution Diagrams www.it-ebooks.info such as the use case diagram can capture requirements from an external actor's perspective, and sequence diagrams can show how objects interact to implement a particular use case

and use case realizations Table of Contents | Index Chapter 8, Statechart Diagrams This chapter introduces state machine modeling using states, actions, and transitions System developers have used modeling languages for decades to specify, visualize, Statecharts can be used to model a simple algorithm all the way up to a complex construct, and document systems The Unified Modeling Language
