Unified Modeling Language
November 10, 2009 COMS W4156

Reprise: What is UML? UML = Unified Modeling Language
A standard language for specifying, visualizing, constructing and documenting software artifacts Standardized by Object Management Group (OMG) Uses mostly graphical notations Helps project teams communicate, explore potential designs, and validate the requirements and architectural design of the software system November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
5
Goals of UML Provide users with a ready-to-use, expressive visual modeling language so they can develop and exchange meaningful models Provide extensibility and specialization mechanisms to augment the core concepts Be independent of particular programming languages, design methodologies and development processes Encourage the growth of the tools market Support higher-level development concepts such as frameworks, components and patterns Integrate “best practices” November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
6
Our Focus: the Language
Unified Modeling Language Language = syntax + semantics Syntax = rules by which language elements (e.g., words) are assembled into expressions (e.g., phrases, clauses) Semantics = rules by which syntactic expressions are assigned meanings November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
7
Building Blocks The basic building blocks (syntax) of UML are:
Model elements (classes, interfaces, components, use cases) Relationships (associations, generalization, dependencies) Diagrams (class diagrams, use case diagrams, interaction diagrams) Simple building blocks are used to create large, complex structures November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
8
Types of UML Diagrams Each UML diagram is designed to let developers and customers view a software system from a different perspective and in varying degrees of abstraction Use Case Behavioral Structural Implementation November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
9
Structural Modeling Used to model the “things” that make up the software system Model class structure and contents Emphasizes the structure of objects, including their classifiers, attributes, operations and relationships November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
10
Structural Diagrams Show a graph of elements connected by relationships Kinds Class diagram: classifier view Object diagram: instance view Shows the static structures of the system (not dynamic or temporal) November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
11
Class Diagrams November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
12
Class Diagrams Shows how the different entities (people, things and data) relate to each other A class diagram can be used to display logical classes, not necessarily code classes, which are typically the kinds of things the business people in an organization talk about — music bands, CDs, radio play; or home mortgages, car loans, interest rates Use domain vocabulary November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
13
Example Class Diagram November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
14
Class Notation A class is depicted on the class diagram as a rectangle with three horizontal sections (“compartments”) The upper section shows the class's name The middle section contains the class's attributes, optionally with initial values The lower section contains the class's operations or behaviors (methods) May be abbreviated to show just name, or just name and attributes November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
15
Class Example November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
16
Class Diagram Draw a generalization relationship using a line with an arrowhead at the top pointing to the super class, where the arrowhead should a completed triangle Draw an association relationship using A solid line if both classes are aware of each other A line with an open arrowhead if the association is known by only one of the classes (pointing to the class known by the other one, i.e., direction of potential navigation) November 10, 2009 COMS W4156

Implementation Classes
November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
23
Implementation Class Diagrams
Class diagrams can also be used to show implementation classes, which are the things that programmers typically deal with An implementation class diagram will probably show some of the same classes as the logical classes diagram The implementation class diagram won't be drawn with the same attributes, however, because it will most likely have references to things like Vectors and HashMaps May add compartments such as responsibilities and exceptions, even gist of method body May indicate attribute and operation visibility: public, private, protected, package November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
24
Example Implementation Class
November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
25
Visibility Markers Signify who can access the information contained within a class Private visibility hides information from anything outside the class partition Public visibility allows all other classes to view the marked information Protected visibility allows child classes to access information they inherited from a parent class Package restricts visibility to the encompassing package November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
26
Example Class Detail + = public = private # = protected
~ = package visibility November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
27
Method Body Example November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
28
Generalization Often represents inheritance at implementation class level Abstract class names given in italics Possibly multiple inheritance November 10, 2009 COMS W4156

32
Associations Reflect connections, e.g., implemented as an instance variable in one or both classes Connector may include named roles at each end, cardinality, direction and constraints Self-associations permitted May indicate choice (xor) May be N-ary (not just binary) Association classes allow an association connection to have operations and attributes November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
33
Association Example November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
34
Association Class Example

35
Cardinality (Multiplicity)
Indicate the number of instances of one class linked to one instance of the other class November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
36
Association Examples November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
37
Ternary Association Class Example
November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
38
Aggregations Aggregations are a stronger form of association between a whole and its parts Drawn with a diamond next to the class representing the target or whole (parent) open vs. closed diamond indicates usage vs. containment semantics Containment may be indicated by composition rather than relationship lines November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
39
Aggregation Example November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
40
Aggregation Example November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
41
Composition Example November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
42
Dependencies Dependencies are a weaker form of association without semantic knowledge Often used early in the design process where it is known that there is some kind of link between two elements, but it is too early to know exactly what the relationship is Later in the design process, dependencies may be replaced with a more specific type of connector Shown with a dashed line (e.g., from client to supplier) <<label>> on line specifies kind (stereotype) of dependency, e.g., <<instantiate>>, <<import>>, etc. November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
43
Dependencies Example November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
44
Dependencies Example November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
45
Interfaces All interface operations are public and abstract, and all interface attributes must be constants By realizing an interface, classes are guaranteed to support a required behavior, which allows the system to treat non-related elements in the same way – that is, through the common interface A class may implement multiple interfaces An interface may be drawn in a similar style to a class, with operations specified Or may be drawn as a circle with no explicit operations detailed (when drawn as a circle, realization links to the circle form of notation are drawn without target arrows) November 10, 2009 COMS W4156

Object Diagrams November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
51
Object Diagrams Refer to a specific instance of a class
Special case of a class diagram Does not show operations but may show runtime state Object names are underlined and may optionally show the name of the classifier from which the object is instantiated (or may be unnamed, but with the class specified) May compose multiple specific instances May be drawn as glyphs November 10, 2009 COMS W4156

Implementation Diagrams
Additional structural modeling (beyond classes, interfaces and objects) Show aspects of model implementation, including source code structure and run-time implementation structure Kinds Component diagram Deployment diagram November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
58
Component Diagrams Describes the software components that make up the system Not necessarily the same as the components of component model frameworks Provides a physical view of the system software Shows the dependencies that the software has on the other software components (e.g., software libraries) in the system A component is illustrated as a large rectangle with two smaller rectangles on the side, lollipops represent interfaces Dashed lines with arrows between components indicate dependencies November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
59
Component Diagram Example
November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
60
Deployment Diagram Visualizes the physical architecture and the deployment of components on that hardware architecture Shows how a system will be physically deployed in the hardware environment, with distribution of components across the enterprise Its purpose is to show where the different components of the system will physically run and how they will communicate with each other November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
61
Deployment Diagram Notation
A node represents either a virtual machine or a physical machine node (e.g., a mainframe node) To model a node, simply draw a three-dimensional cube (or box) with the name of the node at the top of the cube Use the naming convention [instance name] : [instance type] (e.g., "w3reporting.myco.com : Application Server") Associations show communication connections between nodes (e.g., over a LAN) November 10, 2009 COMS W4156

Summary UML is effective for modeling large, complex software systems
The basics are simple to learn for most developers, but UML also provides advanced features for expert analysts, designers and architects It can specify systems independently from the programming language or implementation technology 10-20% of the constructs are used 80-90% of the time Structural modeling specifies a skeleton for the structural elements that supply the behavior (sequence, state, activity diagrams) and implement the use cases (use case diagrams) Implementation diagrams extend structural modeling to source code and run-time structure November 10, 2009 COMS W4156
