WebML Modeling in UML. IET 2007 :.
In recent years, we have witnessed how the Web Engineering community has started to use standard UML notation, techniques and supporting tools for modeling Web systems, which has led to the adaptation to UML of several existing modeling languages, notations, and development processes. This interest for being MOF and UML-compliant arises from the increasing need to interoperate with other notations and tools, and to exchange data and models, thus facilitating reuse. WebML, like any other Domain Specific Language, allows one to express in a precise and natural way the concepts and mechanisms of its domain of reference. However, it cannot fully interoperate with other notations, nor be integrated with other model-based tools. As a solution to these requirements, in this paper we describe a UML 2.0 profile for WebML which allows WebML models to be used in conjunction with other notations and modeling tools. The paper also evaluates UML 2.0 as a platform for Web modeling and identifies some key requirements for making this version of the standard more usable.
