I am modeling a loop in an UML activity diagram. It works well with simple condition nodes (diagram 1), but I am looking for a more expressive way to emphasise the loop semantic . So I came to "regions" or "interruptible regions" which are shown here and there , but I couldn't find many really satisfying examples. My example is a function which processes messages of a given list. The loop aborts as soon as the first valid message is found, then the message is processed and the function returns true. Otherwise, it returns false (please no comments on sense or nonsense, it's only for the sake of

I'm interested in learning how to design/plan for web application development, in a multiple developer team scenario. Assuming the role of "Project Manager/Lead": What "documents" are needed for successful web application development? What UML diagrams are needed and to what degree? In the design/plan phase does each - as per use case - class need to be diagrammed? How detailed (depth and breadth) should the class diagrams be? If you have any helpful book/website recommendations, please share. Follow-up (Added 11/18/09): What do coders/developers use as a guide during coding i.e. creation of

Which way is the right one to show that an attribute's data type is an array of objects? I have found two different versions online. I have a SportsCentre class and I also have an Employee class Both are correct, but the second one, when multiplicity is set to more than one is used is more natural, and it is not necessary do define collection class as it is shown on the first picture of your example. Simply said, multiplicity defines how many instances of specific type can be stored by attribute. This set of instance can be ordered or duplicates in it may be allowed. Parameters of multiplicity

Is there a way to create automatically the UML diagram from the code, in objective-C ? Cheers, Niels epatel Have a look at doxygen . Which seem to have support for Objective-C. It might not give you an UML diagram but it is able to show references etc in graphs and with added comments you can give more information for the formatted output. See here for an example in Objective-C, the clang project (oups, clang is actually written in C++ and works on Objective-C code) But I found this blog post about using doxygen for Objective-C code Same problem, still looking for answer: Checked Doxygen , but

Can you please help me find a detailed tutorial on this topics: UML Behavior Diagrams Use Case Diagrams Activity Diagrams Structure Diagrams Class Diagram Interaction Diagrams Sequence Diagram Communication Diagram I'm really a newbie and I want know what are the ideas in using UML diagrams, there differences, and the tools (like UMLet) that are ideal for novices like me. First and for most let me discuss UML and Use Cases . UML is just a graphical way of describing software systems. There are two types of UML namely: UML Sketching - here you only want to communicate an idea and go through

一、 不同的分析与设计方法 1.功能分解法（ function decomposition ） 以系统需要提供的功能为中心来组织系统。 首先定义各种功能，然后把功能分解为子功能，对较大的子功能进一步分解，直到可给出明确的定义 设计功能 / 子功能所需要的数据结构 定义功能 / 子功能之间的接口。 （作为一种早期的建模方法，没有明确地区分分析与设计） 建模过程：层层进行功能分解 功能分解法得到的系统模型（由模块及其接口构成） 优点与缺点： 直接地反映用户的需求，所以工作很容易开始； 不能直接地映射问题域，很难检验结果的正确性； 对需求变化的适应能力很差； 局部的错误和修改很容易产生全局性的影响。 2.结构化方法： 结构化分析（ structured analysis ， SA ） 结构化设计（ structured design 。 SD ） 结构化分析又称数据流法，其基本策略是跟踪数据流，即研究问题域中数据如何流动，以及在各个环节上进行何种处理，从而发现数据流和加工。得到的分析模型是数据流图（ DFD ），主要模型元素是数据流、加工、文件及端点，外加处理说明和数据字典。 数据流图 结构化设计与功能分解法基本相同，基于模块的概念建立设计模型，分为概要设计和详细设计。 概要设计：确定系统中包含哪些模块以及模块之间的调用关系，得到模块结构图（ MSD ）。 详细设计

I prefer to jot down UML-diagrams on paper and then implement them using Java. It would be nice to have a utility which could create UML-diagrams for me which I may share on-line and include in the digital documentation. In other words: I want to create UML diagrams from Java source code. The utility must be able to: Run in Linux. Handle Generics, i.e show List<Foo> correctly in parameters and return type. Show class inheritance and interface implementations. It's nice if the utility is able to: Run in Windows and Mac OS X. Display enums in some nice manner. Generate output in a diagram format

I am about to draw/document for some client-server connection establishing code to better understand it. There are several operations that are done asynchronously in separate threads (connecting threads, data receiving threads, etc). Should I show them on separate diagrams? I would prefer to have it on a single diagram to grasp overall view but don't know how to represent it on Activity diagram. I'm not sure if there's a correct way of doing this, I developed my own method by testing different strategies until I came up with something that worked for my own mindset. This is how I do it:
