The Elements of UML Style is for all developers who create models using the Unified Modeling Language (UML), especially in teams where understandability and consistency are all critical. Just as Strunk & White’s The Elements of Style provides rules of usage for writing using the English language, this text furnishes a set of rules for modeling in the UML. Renowned UML expert Scott Ambler describes a collection of standards and guidelines for creating effective UML diagrams that will be concise and easy to understand.
This book provides conventions for:
- Class diagrams
- Use case diagrams
- Sequence diagrams
- Activity diagrams
- State chart diagrams
- Collaboration diagrams
- Deployment diagrams
- Component diagrams
- Package diagrams
The Elements of Style sets the rules for style that will improve your productivity.
