The Elements of UML Style is for all developers who create models using the Unified Modeling Language (UML), especially in teams where understandability and consistency are critical. Just as Strunk & White's The Elements of Style provides rules of usage for writing using the English language, this text furnishes a set of rules for modeling in the UML. Renowned UML expert Scott Ambler describes a collection of standards and guidelines for creating effective UML diagrams that will be concise and easy to understand.
