UML
UML stands for the Unified Modeling Language and is a standardized graphical notation for modeling, representing, analyzing and documenting software systems.
The UML was defined at the Object Management Group (OMG), and is not restricted to modeling only the software. It also can be used for modeling business processes, organizational and contoling structures.
The UML is an extensible notation, which can be customized by profiling and stereotyping.
