UML 2.0

UML 2.0 Standard Officially Adopted at OMG Technical Meeting in Paris

The upgraded UML standard now has the following features:

• A first-class extension mechanism allows modelers to add their own
  metaclasses, making it easier to define new UML Profiles and to extend
  modeling to new application areas.


•  Built-in support for component-based development to ease
  modeling of applications realized in Enterprise JavaBeans, CORBA®
  components or COM+. Support for run-time architectures allows modeling
  of object and data flow among different parts of a system. Support for
  executable models improved in general.


• More accurate and precise representation of relationships improves
  modeling of inheritance, composition and aggregation, and state
  machines.


•  Better behavioral modeling improves support for encapsulation
  and scalability, removes restrictions on mapping of activity graphs to
  state machines, and improves Sequence diagram structure.


• Overall improvements to the language simplifies syntax and
  semantics, and better organizes its overall structure.
