Need a UML Expert? Call Telelogic! As a Leader in Defining the New UML Standards, We Have the Insight, Knowledge and Background You Need.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 3, 2001 UML (Unified Modeling Language) An object-oriented analysis and design language from the Object Management Group (OMG). Many design methodologies for describing object-oriented systems were developed in the late 1980s. is supposed to make developing complex software and systems easier. And since its adoption in 1997 by the Object Management Group (OMG (1) See Object Management Group. (2) "Oh my God!" See digispeak. OMG - Object Management Group ), the world's largest software consortium, UML has taken the software world by storm, finally providing developers with a universal, tool- and platform-independent language for visually specifying and constructing object-oriented systems. Now it's all about to change. When the OMG adopts its first major revision to the language next year, it could include enhancements that greatly simplify the code warrior's life. On a larger level, the repercussions repercussions npl → répercussions fpl repercussions npl → Auswirkungen pl of UML 2.0 could accelerate application development and improve quality throughout the software industry. Telelogic is a key player in this effort, having worked with a consortium of other industry heavyweights to recommend major improvements to UML that will make it easier to define components, architectures and business processes.
