UML Diagram Software
ConceptDraw DIAGRAM is a powerful UML diagramming software. It provides the Rapid UML Solution that allows you to draw professional looking UML Diagrams of any complexity in a few minutes.
Unified Modeling Language (UML) is a language of graphic description for object modeling in the field of software engineering. UML is an open standard that uses graphic notations for creating visual models of object-oriented software systems.
There are 13 types of diagrams used in UML.
Using the Rapid UML Solution from the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park you can make the UML Diagram of any type quick and easy.
Pic. 1. UML Component Diagram.
This sample shows the Component Diagram. It was created in ConceptDraw DIAGRAM using the UML Component Diagram library of the Rapid UML Solution. You can see the components of the system and dependencies between them.
The UML diagrams produced with ConceptDraw DIAGRAM are vector graphic documents and are available for reviewing, modifying, and converting to a variety of formats (image, HTML, PDF file, MS PowerPoint Presentation, Adobe Flash or MS Visio).
THREE RELATED HOW TO's:
While developing software, it is very important to have a visual model, because it helps to represent the logic and the architecture of an application. Experienced engineers use UML diagrams to denote relationships between classes and their instances. UML is a general language for a set of diagrams like deployment diagrams, object diagrams or use case diagrams.
This diagram represents UML class diagram used for a software system development using an object-oriented method. Class diagrams are categorized as static structure diagrams that depict the physical structure of a system. Class diagram divides a software system's structure into "classes". Classes are defined by the methods and variables of objects. UML Class diagram is used to depict relationships and source code dependencies between objects.

You can use many tools to create a representation of a system behavior or a scheme of objects relationships. Some of them are quite abstract and useless, and some, like UML tools help clarifying both the structure and the behavior of a system. There are various types of uml diagrams and tons of examples explaining the difference between them.
UML 2.2 specification has many kinds of diagrams. They are divided into two groups( structure and behavior diagrams). This class diagram shows the hierarchical structure of UML 2.2 specification. Class diagram - the most suitable tool for this task because it is designed to describe basic structure of a system. This diagram can be use as a visual aid for learning UML.
