2.-UML_Introduction

The Unified Modeling Language (UML) was developed in the mid-1990s by Grady Booch, Jim Rumbaugh, and Ivar Jacobson to unify various object-oriented modeling techniques. UML serves as a nonproprietary standard for modeling systems, facilitating communication throughout the project design process with both graphical and textual representations. The current version is UML 2.2, and it includes various tools for commercial and open-source use, focusing on visualizing, specifying, constructing, and documenting systems.

Mid- to late- 1990's
■ “3 AMIGOS” (Grady Booch, Jim Rumbaugh and
IvarJacobson)
■ Joined together to unify their individual ventures
■ Each was working on some sort of Object Oriented
modeling Technique
■ They also developed the Rational Unified Process,
which became the Unified Process in 1999

■ A language, both graphical and textual, used
throughout the entire process of project
design (from requirements analysis to
deployment).
■ Semi-formal specification that captures
structure of O.O.D.
■ A standard tool for communicating a design.
