Unified Modeling Language (UML)

Unified Modeling Language (UML) is an Object Management Group (OMG) specification that helps you specify, visualize, and document models of software systems or business systems, including their structure and design.

The Business Object Modeler uses terms and notation similar to UML, so an understanding of UML can be useful.

The latest major version of UML (and the one employed within the Business Object Modeler) is Version 2, commonly referred to as UML2. For more information see http://www.uml.org/.
