In The Unified Modeling Language User Guide, the original developers of the UML - Grady Booch, James Rumbaugh, and Ivar Jacobson - provide a tutorial to the core aspects of the language in a two-color format designed to facilitate learning. Starting with a conceptual model of the UML, the book progressively applies the UML to a series of increasingly complex modeling problems across a variety of application domains. This example-driven approach helps readers quickly understand and apply the UML. For more advanced developers, the book includes a learning track focused on applying the UML to advanced modeling problems. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
