The purpose of the UML Dictionary is to address the need for an authoritative illustrated dictionary about UML, the standard visual modeling language for specifying, constructing, visualizing, and documenting the artifacts of a software-intensive system. The book specifies a modeling language that incorporates the object-oriented community's consensus on core modeling concepts. The book, which contains a CD with the book's contents in searchable PDF format, is an authoritative, standard illustrated dictionary with liberal cross-referencing per the material on a related website. The site contains 800 distinct terms, and the dictionary contains additional diagrams and resources. The dictionary is suitable for a broad audience and anyone interested in the UML, its terms, and the notation associated with the terms. Although there are no prerequisites for reading the material, knowledge of basic object-oriented concepts would be beneficial.
