This book starts with requirements gathering & ends with implementation. In the process, you'll learn how to analyze and design classes, their relationships to each other in order to build a model of the problem domain. You'll also use common UML diagrams throughout this process, such as use-case, class, activity & other diagrams. This book is also suitable for use in postgraduate and graduate courses as well as in professional seminars and individual study. Because it deals primarily with a method of software development, it is most appropriate for courses in software engineering and as a supplement to courses involving specific object-oriented programming languages.

To understand and use UML as intended by its authors, software architects and developers should be familiar with general concepts and methods of Object Oriented Modeling and Design and/or of the object-oriented development (OOD), and how those were applied to UML itself. There is one problem with this requirement: though OOMD/OOD is being used for several decades, there is still no concensus on what is OOMD and even what are the fundamental concepts ("quarks") of the OOMD. Ok, so we are really in trouble: UML specifications use OOMD concepts which have no clear and generally accepted definitions without providing own interpretations or definitions of those concepts.

The Unified Modeling Language™ (UML®) is inherently object-oriented modeling language and was designed for use in object-oriented software applications. The applications could be based on the object-oriented technologies recommended by the Object Management Group (OMG), which owns the UML. The initial versions of UML (UML 1.x) were based on three leading object-oriented methods - Booch, OMT, and OOSE, to represent "the culmination of best practices in practical object-oriented modeling". UML 2.x is still object-oriented in its core (though there were some apparently unsuccessful attempts to extend UML to support other development methods).

This book provides practical guidance on the modeling and design of object-oriented systems. The concepts presented all stand on a solid theoretical foundation, but this is primarily a pragmatic book that addresses the practical needs and concerns of software engineering practitioners, from the architect to the software developer.
