3ANALYSIS OF UML DIAGRAM
Introduction
Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a kind of language developed to visualize,
document, construct and specify the software system. UML was created by the Object
Management Group, which appeared as a fusion of methods like Booch, OOSE and OMT.
James Rumbaugh, Ivar Jacobson and Grady Booch together developed UML at Rational
Software in the year 1994 to 1996. UML uses graphical notations, which has made it an
important aspect of object-oriented software development (Afanasyev et al., 2015). The aim
of this report is to comment on the suitability of use-case diagram and understanding UML
Notation. The concept of UML is unlike other languages like C++, Python and java. It can
also be used as document to make blueprints of the software (Gómez et al., 2016). The
developers, as well as the common people and software systems as well as non-software
system can use UML. The goal of UML is to provide pictorial model of all system in the
present complex environment. The UML diagram provides a static and dynamic
representation of a system model. The static view comprises of class and composite diagram
that depicts the static outline of the system. UML can be further categoriesed into two broad
categories:
Structural Diagram: Structure diagram comprises of class diagram, object, composite
structural, deployment, component and package diagrams.
Behavioral Diagram: Behavioral diagram comprises of use case diagrams, state machine,
sequence, activity, communication, interaction overview and the timing diagrams (Kumar &
Singh, 2015).
