Modeling Demystified, Part 3: Extend UML for User Models - Associations, Relationships, and Stereotypes

Tags:
programming languages

Overview A user model is a description of a set of people and how they will work with an IT solution. This type of modeling, which is based on leading usability theory and practice, lets solution architects specify the external design elements of the IT solution so that it's both useful and usable to all types of users. In this paper, learn about the stereotypes and relationships used to extend Unified Modeling Language (UML) for user models.
