Directions for Unified Modeling Language   05 Nov 03
[ print link all ]
Martin Fowler has some interesting observations on the state of the Unified Modeling Language. He has noticed that UML users fall into three categories according to how they use UML: UML-as-sketch, UML-as-blueprint and UML-as-programming-language. He goes on to say that the current UML standardization process is driven mainly by the blueprint and programming language crowd, leaving the sketchers out in the cold.

I’ve always liked Fowlers "UML Distilled" book because it drilled down to the really important parts of UML without getting caught up in a lot of the superfluous annotations. I definitely fall into the UML-as-sketch category. Now I wonder where UML is going.
