Assignment #1 Knowledge Sharing Weblog (10%) Tasks: Each student should keep a weekly weblog (blog) to document their learning experience and what they learned. The main purpose of the weblog is to encourage you to learn independently as well as a way to share what you learned with others in the class. Each student is required to give a short 5-minute talk on your blog in class.

Week 7 What is UML

Week 6 – UML

What is UML?

UML stands for the Unified Modeling Language. UML is the OMG’s most used specification and the way the world models not only application structure, behavior and architecture, but also business process and data structure.

UML 1.5: the current official version

The heart of object-oriented problem solving is the construction of a model. The model abstracts the essential details of the underlying problem from its usually complicated real world. That’s the reason why we would like to use the UML to model the real world while we are programming.

So, what is UML? UML stands for “Unified Modeling Language”. Why does the UML so important? Since writing software is something that does not like constructing a building. The more complicated the underlying system, the more critical the communication among everyone involved in creating and deploying the software. The UML is application to object-oriented proclaiming solving. Anyone interest in learning UML must be familiar with the underlying tent of object-oriented problem solving. How can we get started? We use model. What is mode? A model is an abstracting of the underlying problem. The domain is the actual world from which the problem comes.

At the center of the UML are its nine kinds of modeling diagrams, which we describe here:

1. Use case diagrams

2. Class diagrams

3. Object diagrams

4. Sequence diagrams

5. Collaboration diagrams

6. Statechart diagrams

7. Activity diagrams

8. Component diagrams

9. Deployment diagrams


UML are quiet simple. With several simply rules, we can adopt to the complicated world with simply diagram. It is really a great innovation and hopefully the upcoming version UML 2.0 will be much more
