Introduction to UML
Abstract
This chapter provides an introduction to the modeling concepts of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) including diagrammatic representations of modeling elements. First small elements are discussed, including structural elements (classes, objects, operations, attributes interfaces and ports) and relations (association, aggregation, composition, generalization, and dependency). Following this, larger-scale UML features are explained, including subsystems, components and packages. Once the basic properties of structural elements are understood, then behavioral modeling is discussed, including interactions and state behavior.
