Preface
Learning UML is the quintessential tutorial for
the Unified Modeling Language (UML). The Unified Modeling Language is
a language for communicating about systems: an evolutionary,
general-purpose, broadly applicable, tool-supported, and
industry-standardized modeling language for specifying, visualizing,
constructing, and documenting the artifacts of a system-intensive
process.The UML was originally conceived by, and evolved primarily from,
Rational Software Corporation and three of its most prominent
methodologists, the Three Amigos: Grady Booch,
James Rumbaugh, and Ivar Jacobson. The UML emerged as a standard from
the Object Management Group (OMG) and Rational Software Corporation
to unify the information systems and technology
industry's best engineering practices as a
collection of modeling techniques.The UML may be applied to different types of systems (software and
non-software), domains (business versus software), and methods or
processes. The UML enables and promotes (but does not require nor
mandate) a use-case-driven, architecture-centric, iterative and
incremental, and risk-confronting process that is object-oriented and
component-based. However, the UML does not prescribe any particular
system development approach. Rather, it is flexible and can be
customized to fit any method.The UML is significantly more than a standard or another modeling
language. It is a "paradigm,"
"philosophy,"
"revolution," and
"evolution" of how we approach
problem solving and systems. It is often said that the English
language is the world's "universal
language"; now it is virtually certain that the UML
will be the information systems and technology
world's "universal
language."
