UML Timing Diagrams

Utilizing the intuitive features of UModel® 2009, you’ll make quick work of UML timing diagrams.

Timing diagrams in UML are based on hardware timing diagrams originally developed by electrical engineers. Software modelers can use a UML timing diagram to precisely document a schedule of interactions or state changes.

It’s simple to start constructing a timing diagram in UModel® 2009 by clicking the lifeline icon in the timing diagram toolbar.

You’ll find familiar visual tools and intuitive selections in the right-click context menu to resize the lifeline and add new states. Any element can be renamed by typing in the diagram or by editing the properties window.

Clicking the lifeline creates a new point to specify a state change, initially displayed in red. Then you can drag and drop the lifeline to snap it to the desired state.

The toolbar also offers duration and time constraints, tick marks, and event stimulus elements you’ll use to complete annotation of your diagram.

If you begin by creating a line diagram and decide later you’d rather use areas to show state changes, you can click the Toggle Notation quick editing button to switch the timing diagram style.

Of course the area style also offers the Toggle Notation button to convert to line notation, or you can click the Undo button to go back.

Timing diagrams are likely to complement and expand other parts of your model, such as activity diagrams or state machines. You can attach a hyperlink to any element in your timing diagram to quickly open any other diagram in your model.
