UML 2000 - The Unified Modeling Language: Advancing the Standard

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on the Unified Modeling Language, > 2000, held in York, UK in October 2000. The 36 revised full papers presented together with two invited papers and three panel outlines were carefully reviewed and selected from 102 abstracts and 82 papers submitted. The book offers topical sections on use cases, enterprise applications, applications, roles, OCL tools, meta-modeling, behavioral modeling, methodology, actions and constraints, patterns, architecture, and state charts.
