ACTION LANGUAGES FOR UNIFIED MODELING LANGUAGE MODEL

摘要

Methods, mediums and systems are provided to enable a user to program the behaviors of a Unified Modeling Language (UML) model in a graphical programming or modeling environment, such as block diagram programming environment. The UML model is exported into a text-based format, which is subsequently imported into the graphical programming or modeling environment. The graphical programming or modeling environment represents the UML model using functional blocks so that the user can program the behaviors of the UML model. The graphical programming or modeling environment also enables the user to simulate or execute the UML model to determine the behaviors of the UML model.
