Unified Modeling Language

An activity is a major task captured by a Unified Modeling Language (UML) software design that must take place in order to fulfill an operation contract. Therefore, an activity can represent the invocation of an operation, a step in a business process, or an entire business process. ...more on Wikipedia about "Activity (UML)"

In the Unified Modeling Language (UML), an actor is something or someone who supplies a stimulus to the system. It can also be thought of as something the system requires in order to function. Without a customer (an actor) in a restaurant, the process of ordering food cannot begin. ...more on Wikipedia about "Actor (UML)"

Prof. David Harel has been at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel since 1980, and is incumbent of the William Sussman Professorial Chair in Mathematics. He was Head of the Department of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science from 1989 to 1995, and was Dean of the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science from 1998 to the end of 2004. He is also co-founder of I-Logix, Inc. , Andover, MA, and of SenseIT Technologies, Ltd. (DigiScents Israel). Activity in the latter company stopped with the fall of the Nasdaq in April 2001. ...more on Wikipedia about "David Harel"

MOF, the Meta-Object Facility, is an Object Management Group (OMG) standard. MOF originated in the Unified Modeling Language (UML); the OMG was in need of a Meta-Modeling architecture to define the UML. MOF is designed as a four-layered architecture. It provides a meta-meta model at the top layer, aka the M3 layer. This M3-model is the language used by MOF to build meta-models, called M2-models. The most prominent example of a Layer 2 MOF model is the UML meta-model, the model that describes the UML itself. These M2-models describe elements of the M1-layer, and thus M1-models. These would be, for example, models written in UML. The last layer is the M0-layer or data layer. It is used to describe application data, and are thus instances of M1-models. ...more on Wikipedia about "Meta-Object Facility"

Object Constraint Language is a declarative language for describing rules that apply to UML models developed at IBM and now part of the UML standard. ...more on Wikipedia about "Object Constraint Language"

Object Management Group (OMG) is a consortium, originally aimed at setting standards for distributed object-oriented systems, and now focused on modeling (programs, systems and business processes) as well as model-based standards in some 20 vertical markets. Founded in 1989 by eleven companies including Hewlett-Packard Company, Apple Computer Inc., American Airlines and Data General, OMG mobilised to create a ...more on Wikipedia about "Object Management Group"

The object-modeling technique (OMT) is an object modeling language for software modeling and designing. It was developed circa 1991 by Rumbaugh, Blaha, Premerlani, Eddy and Lorensen as a method to develop object-oriented systems, and to support object-oriented programming. ...more on Wikipedia about "Object-modeling technique"

In computing, a stereotype is a concept in the Unified Modeling Language, where it is used to encapsulate behaviors. Thus, a stereotype is used as a vehicle for communicating software requirements and designs, and lacks the negative connotation present in general usage. ...more on Wikipedia about "Stereotype (computing)"

The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a non-proprietary, object modeling and specification language used in software engineering. UML includes a standardized graphical notation that may be used to create an abstract model of a system: the UML model. ...more on Wikipedia about "Unified Modeling Language"

In software engineering, a use case is a technique for capturing the potential requirements of a new system or software change. Each use case provides one or more scenarios that convey how the system should interact with the end user or another system to achieve a specific business goal. Use cases typically avoid technical jargon, preferring instead the language of the end user or domain expert. Use cases are often co-authored by Business Analysts and end users. ...more on Wikipedia about "Use case"

The XML Metadata Interchange (XMI) is an OMG standard for exchanging metadata information via Extensible Markup Language (XML). It can be used for any metadata whose metamodel can be expressed in Meta-Object Facility (MOF). The most common use of XMI is as an interchange format for UML models, although it can also be used for serialization of models of other languages (metamodels). ...more on Wikipedia about "XML Metadata Interchange"
