Wisdom - A UML Based Architecture for Interactive Systems

Abstract. The UML is recognized to be the dominant diagrammatic modeling language in the software industry. However, it’s support for building interactive systems is still acknowledged to be insufficient. In this paper we discuss and identify the major problems using the UML framework for interactive system development, specifically, in what concerns the architectural issues. Here we present a conceptual architectural model that expands the analysis framework of the Unified Process and the UML profile for software development processes. Our proposal leverages on user-interface domain knowledge, fostering co-evolutionary development of interactive systems and enabling artifact change between software engineering and humancomputer interaction, under the common notation and semantics of the UML.
