===what is UML?===
The Unified Modelling Language (UML) is a diagramming language or notation to specify, visualise and document models of Object Orientated software systems. UML is not a development method, that means it does not tell you what to do first and what to do next or how to design your system, but it helps you to visualise your design and communicate with others. UML is controlled by the Object Management Group (OMG) and is the industry standard for graphically describing software.


UML is designed for Object Orientated software design and has limited use for other programming paradigms.

*The '''Unified Modelling Language (UML)''' is a diagramming language to specify, visualise and document models of Object Oriented software systems.  


UML is composed of many model elements that represent the different parts of a software system. The UML elements are used to create diagrams, which represent a certain part, or a point of view of the system. The following types of diagrams are supported by Umbrello UML Modeller:

*Use Case Diagrams show actors (people or other users of the system), use cases (the scenarios when they use the system), and their relationships

Unified Modeling Language(UML)

What is UML in Computer Science?

  • The Unified Modelling Language (UML) is a diagramming language to specify, visualise and document models of Object Oriented software systems.
  • UML is not a development method, that means it does not tell you what to do first and what to do next or how to design your system, but it helps you to visualise your design and communicate with others.
  • UML is managed by the Object Management Group (OMG) and is the industry standard for graphically describing software.UML is designed for Object Orientated software design and has limited use for other programming paradigms.

Review of MVC sites on the Web that are best for learning MVC(Model-View-Controller)Architechture

This link gives an introduction to learn the concepts and the relationship between Model,View and the Controller.

Next,This link gives an basic overview of the MVC architecture and then talks about the implementation of MVC in various languages along with a wide variety of examples.

This link describes in detail the MVC framework as it existed in Smalltalk-80 v2.0 and also explains clearly the components of the MVC pattern.

This Tutorial describes the mvc pattern and gives an detailed example on how to use MVC pattern for Web Services using Java as an interface.

This website provides an in-depth MVC description with examples to clearly understand the concept.

This article will explain the usage of Robustness Analysis in conjunction with Model View Controller, using UML with application in ASP.NET. This article is a sequel to my articles on Architecture and Design with ASP.NET

Review of MVC sites on the Web that are best applicable for JAVA

In this link an application of MVC in java is Illustrated.

This link introduces Struts, a Model-View-Controller implementation that uses servlets and JavaServer Pages (JSP) technology. Struts can help you control change in your Web project and promote specialization. Even if you never implement a system with Struts, you may get some ideas for your future servlets and JSP page implementation.

The website illustrates the Struts 1.1 Controller with UML diagrams. This article is an introduction to the Struts framework in order to help beginners programmers to understand the MVC model 2.

Review of MVC sites on the Web that are best applicable for RUBY

This link gives a clear understanding of MVC and also the application of MVC Ruby on Rails.

These slides give a brief review of the use of MVC Architecture with a few examples in Ruby on Rails.

  • ruby-uml tries to trace different aspects of an existing application, which is intended to provide support for refactorisations by generating UML-graphs.
  • ruby-uml is able to generate textual representations of the gathered informations.
  • These representations include a picture or dot-code that can be converted to images by their corresponding applications.
  • ruby-uml is able to generate sequences and class diagrams.
