Modeling with UML, Softcover reprint of the original 1st ed. 2016
Language, Concepts, Methods

This book presents a variant of UML that is especially suitable for agile development of high-quality software. It adjusts the language UML profile, called UML/P, for optimal assistance for the design, implementation, and agile evolution to facilitate its use especially in agile, yet model based development methods for data intensive or control driven systems.

After a general introduction to UML and the choices made in the development of UML/P in Chapter 1, Chapter 2 includes a definition of the language elements of class diagrams and their forms of use as views and representations. Next, Chapter 3 introduces the design and semantic facets of the Object Constraint Language (OCL), which is conceptually improved and syntactically adjusted to Java for better comfort. Subsequently, Chapter 4 introduces object diagrams as an independent, exemplary notation in UML/P, and Chapter 5 offers a detailed introduction to UML/P Statecharts. Lastly, Chapter 6 presents a simplified form of sequence diagrams for exemplary descriptions of object interactions. For completeness, appendixes A?C describe the full syntax of UML/P, and appendix D explains a sample application from the E-commerce domain, which is used in all chapters.

Bernhard Rumpe teaches at the RWTH Aachen Excellence University the use of agile, model-based development on the basis of UML. His research interests include models, modeling languages, DSLs, as well as their construction, analytical and generative use in development of products. With a number of publications, he has contributed to the standardization of UML and to a better use within development processes. He is author and editor of 21 books and Editor-in-Chief of the international Springer Journal on Software and Systems Modeling (SoSyM).

Introduces UML as the modeling language of choice for software projects

Includes an extensive application example for an auction system

Closes the often-encountered “implementation gap” between models and code by a tight semantic and syntactic integration of Java and UML/P.
