"The builder pattern is an object creation software design pattern. Unlike the abstract factory pattern and the factory method pattern whose intention is to enable polymorphism, the intention of the builder pattern is to find a solution to the telescoping constructor anti-pattern. ... The intent of the Builder design pattern is to separate the construction of a complex object from its representation. By doing so the same construction process can create different representations."

The SysML sequence diagram example "Builder design pattern sequence" was drawn using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the SysML solution from the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

The vector stencils library "UML composite structure diagrams" contains 36 symbols for the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software.
"The key composite structure entities identified in the UML 2.0 specification are structured classifiers, parts, ports, connectors, and collaborations.
(1) Part : A part represents a role played at runtime by one instance of a classifier or by a collection of instances. The part may only name the role, it may name an abstract superclass, or it may name a specific concrete class. The part can include a multiplicity factor, such as the [0..*] shown for Viewer in the diagram.
(2) Port : A port is an interaction point that can be used to connect structured classifiers with their parts and with the environment. Ports can optionally specify the services they provide and the services they require from other parts of the system. In the diagram, each of the small squares is a port. Each port has a type and is labelled with a name, such as "var", "indVar1", or "view" in the diagram. Ports may contain a multiplicity factor, for example.
Ports can either delegate received requests to internal parts, or they can deliver these directly to the behavior of the structured classifier that the port is contained within. Public ports that are visible in the environment are shown straddling the boundary, while protected ports that are not visible in the environment are shown inside the boundary. All the ports in the diagram are public, except for the view port along the right boundary of FibonacciSystem.
(3) Connector : A connector binds two or more entities together, allowing them to interact at runtime. The connector is shown as a line between some combination of parts, ports and structured classifiers. The diagram shows three connectors between ports, and one connector between a structured classifier and a part.
(4) Collaboration : A collaboration is generally more abstract than a structured classifier. It is shown as a dotted oval containing roles that instances can play in the collaboration.
(5) Structured classifier : A StructuredClassifier represents a class, often an abstract class, whose behavior can be completely or partially described through interactions between parts." [Composite structure diagram. Wikipedia]
The example "Design elements - UML composite structure diagrams" is included in the Rapid UML solution from the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

The vector stencils library "Bank UML composite structure diagram" contains 10 shapes for drawing UML composite structure diagrams.
Use it for object-oriented modeling of your bank information system.

An EncapsulatedClassifier is a type of structured classifier that contains ports." [Composite structure diagram. Wikipedia]

The vector stencils library "Marketing diagram" contains 20 solid and transparent geometric shapes: rectangle, rounded rectangle, ellipse, cloud, circle, diamond, hexagon, starburst, flag.
Use it to illustrate your marketing infograms with block diagrams.
"The term diagram in its commonly used sense can have a general or specific meaning:
(1) visual information device: Like the term "illustration" the diagram is used as a collective term standing for the whole class of technical genres, including graphs, technical drawings and tables.
(2) specific kind of visual display: This is the genre that shows qualitative data with shapes that are connected by lines, arrows, or other visual links. ...
In the specific sense diagrams and charts contrast with computer graphics, technical illustrations, infographics, maps, and technical drawings, by showing "abstract rather than literal representations of information". The essence of a diagram can be seen as:
(1) a form of visual formatting devices;
(2) a display that does not show quantitative data (numerical data), but rather relationships and abstract information;
(3) with building blocks such as geometrical shapes connected by lines, arrows, or other visual links." [Diagram. Wikipedia]
The shapes example "Design elements - Marketing diagram" was created using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Marketing Infographics solition from the area "Business Infographics" in ConceptDraw Solution Park.
