Modeling with UML

An Overview of UML

2.2.1 Use Case Diagrams

2.2.2 Class Diagrams

2.2.3 Interaction Diagrams

• Sequence Diagrams are one type of Interaction Diagrams

2.2.4 State Machine Diagrams

2.2.5 Activity Diagrams

2.3 Modeling Concepts

2.3.1 Systems, Models, and Views

2.3.2 Data Types, Abstract Data Types, and Instances

2.3.3 Classes, Abstract Classes, and Objects

2.3.4 Event Classes, Events, and Messages

2.3.5 Object-Oriented Modeling

2.3.6 Falsification and Prototyping

• Falsification: Proving an existing model to be false, thereby producing a better model
• Prototyping: Creating a quick and simple version of a product to be built, for the purposes of evaluation (and falsification. )
