The UML is standard diagramming language to visualize the results of analysis and design.
An emerging standard for modeling object-oriented software.
Resulted from the convergence of notations from three leading object-oriented methods:
OMT (James Rumbaugh)
OOSE (Ivar Jacobson)
Booch (Grady Booch)
UML Notation is simple and relatively trivial.
Much more important: Skill in designing with objects.
The UML is not:
A process or methodology.
Object-oriented analysis and design.
Guideline for design.
