            Abstract : 
The paper presents an UML profile which defines a language for specifying, analysing and documenting dependability mechanisms. It helps to cope with the complexity of fault-tolerant system design by providing specifications of (common) dependability constructs that can be incorporated into models of fault-tolerant real-time systems.
