UML Analysis Tools
Tool Description

UML offers an unprecedented opportunity for high-quality critical systems development that is feasible in an industrial context.

  • As the de-facto standard in industrial modeling, a large number of developers is trained in UML.
  • Compared to previous industrial notations with a user community of comparable size, UML is relatively precisely defined.
  • A number of tools are being developed to assist the every-day work using UML.
This tool framework provides automatic verification plugins of UML models for critical requirements. In particular, it includes automated analysis of UMLsec models for the security requirements included as stereotypes.

The input is a .zargo or .xmi file containing UML diagrams created with the UML tool ArgoUML.

A particular focus of many of the verification plug-ins within this tool architecture is on security-critical systems.
