The Role of Experience and Ability in Comprehension Tasks Supported by UML Stereotypes
29th International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE'07), 2007Proponents of design notations tailored for specific application domains or reference architectures, often available in the form of UML stereotypes, motivate them by improved understandability and modifiability. However, empirical studies that tested such claims report contradictory results, where the most intuitive notations are not always the best ...

The Use of Subtypes and Stereotypes in the UML Model
Journal of Database Management, 2002Based on users’ experiences of Version 1.3 of the Unified Modeling Language (UML) of the Object Management Group (OMG), a Request For Information in 1999 elicited several responses which were asked to identify “problems” but not to offer any solutions.

Extensions to UML Using Stereotypes
2005The Unified Modeling Language (UML) allows to visualize, to specify, to build and to document the devices of a system that involves a great quantity of software. It provides a standard form for writing the models of a system, covering so much of the conceptual aspects (such as processes of the business and functions of the system) as the concrete ones (

Extension to UML Using Stereotypes
2011The objective of this chapter is to first present the basic extension mechanisms proposed by UML. We then propose an extension to facilitate the modeling of specific applications. UML provides three extension mechanisms to allow the modelers to make some common extensions without having to modify the language of modeling underlying “Tag Values ...

Semantics of Stereotypes for Type Specification in UML: Theory and Practice
2001In the context of object-oriented formalism, stereotypes are presented as a new means for user-defined extensions of the Unified Modeling Language (UML). Unfortunately, the stereotypes syntax and semantics vary depending on the proposed extensions and it is not easy to propose a complete formalization of this mechanism.

Non-Functional Requirements and UML Stereotypes
2005In Nuseibeh and Easterbrook (2000), an overview of the field of software and systems requirements engineering is presented. Therein is highlighted some key open-research issues for the future of the Requirements Engineering (RE). Some of the major challenges mentioned there, are related with the necessity of richer models for capturing and analyzing ...

Extension and Implementation of Iconic Stereotype for GNSS Application in the UML Class Diagram
2004 International Conference on Cyberworlds, 2004UML cannot meet all the requirements offered in different software system for diverse application domain. GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) application domain is an especial environment that requires precise measurement and precision calculation of real-world geographical entities with the help of GPS (Global Position System) in both temporal ...

Using UML Stereotypes to Support the Requirement Engineering: A Case Study
2012In this paper we discuss the transition of an educational process to real-life use. Specifically, a Requirements Engineering (RE) process was tailored and improved to comply with the organization business goals. We discuss challenges faced and proposed solutions, focusing on automation and integration support for RE activities.

Definition of a new kind of UML stereotype based on OMG metamodel
ACS/IEEE International Conference on Computer Systems and Applications, 2003. Book of Abstracts., 2004Summary form only given. UML (Unified Modelling Language) is a universal language for modelling of object-oriented applications. UML can build models of different kinds of domains. However, no paradigm is enough to clearly model all views of all possible domains.

Does the use of stereotypes improve the comprehension of UML sequence diagrams?
Proceedings of the Second ACM-IEEE international symposium on Empirical software engineering and measurement, 2008This paper reports on a controlled experiment that investigates the influence of stereotypes in UML sequence diagrams. The comprehension of UML sequence diagrams with and without stereotypes is analyzed from three different perspectives: semantic comprehension, retention and transfer.
