Applied software engineering principles for UML

Summary form only given, as follows. The crucial factors for Unified Modeling Language´s (UML??s) broad acceptance in the future are the thorough understanding of its concepts, an in-depth knowledge about the meaning and manipulation of notations, and a coherent methodological framework. Therefore, in this tutorial we will focus both on a thorough treatment of UML??s description techniques and on their seamless integration into a practical development process for sequential and concurrent systems.
