UML用户指南（英文版•第2版）

历经十载，UML（统一建模语言）已经成为可视化、详述、构造和文档化软件密集型系统工件的工业标准。UML作为事实上的标准建模语言，有力地促进了项目相关人员之间的沟通，大大降低了沟通中出现混乱的几率。而UML2.0规范更进一步扩展了UML这门语言的适用范围和生命力。其内在的丰富表现力使得用户可以建模从企业信息系统和分布式基于Web的应用到实时嵌入式系统的任何事物。 本书介绍了UML的基础知识，包括UML的术语、规则和语言特点，以及如何运用该语言去解决各种应用领域中的复杂建模问题。书中给出了大量实例，这种基于实际应用的学习方式，有助读者迅速掌握UML的基本概念、独特性质及应用。 在第2版中保持了第1版论述全面深入、由实例驱动的特点，并彻底更新了内容以符合UML2.0规范。 新增内容包括： 新增一章介绍组件和内部结构，内容包括用于构造封装设计的新技术。 新增和更新了所需接口、协作和UML profile的内容。 新增和修改了有关顺序图、活动图等的讨论。 增加了由UML2.0规范引入的一些新变化。

三位软件工程界巨匠——Grady Booch、James Rumbaugh以及Ivar Jacobson是统一建模语言(UML)的创始人，他们因对创立对象技术的卓越贡献而为全世界所共知。除本书外，他们还合著了另两部名著：《UML参考手册》和《统一软件开发过程》。
