Scope and objectives

This Recommendation defines a unified modeling language (UML) profile for SDL-2010. It ensures a well-defined mapping between parts of a UML model and the SDL-2010 semantics. The profile is based upon the UML metamodel and upon the abstract grammar of SDL-2010, and in the following text is referred to as SDL-UML.

The specializations and restrictions are defined in terms of stereotypes for metaclasses of the UML metamodel and the abstract grammar of SDL-2010 and are in principle independent of any notation. However, to generate particular model elements, especially those that are instances of UML actions or activities, it is assumed that an appropriate notation is specified (see an Example language specification in Appendix I).

A software tool that claims to support this Recommendation (hereafter referred to as a tool) should be capable of creating, editing, presenting and analysing descriptions compliant with this Recommendation.
