• 35.080 Software

This Recommendation | International Standard defines use of the Unified Modeling Language (UML 2.1.1 Superstructure Specification, OMG document formal/07-02-05) for expressing system specifications in terms of the viewpoint specifications defined by the Reference Model of Open Distributed Processing (RM-ODP, ITU-T Recs X.901 to X.904 | ISO/IEC 10746 Parts 1 to 4) and the Enterprise Language (ITU-T Rec. X.911 | ISO/IEC 15414). It covers:

1. the expression of a system specification in terms of RM-ODP viewpoint specifications using defined UML concepts and extensions (e.g., structuring rules, technology mappings, etc.);

2. relationships between the resultant RM-ODP viewpoint specifications.

This document is intended for the following audiences:

• ODP modellers who want to use the UML notation for expressing their ODP specifications in a graphical and standard way;

• UML modellers who want to use the RM-ODP concepts and mechanisms to structure their UML system specifications; and

• modelling tool suppliers, who wish to develop UML-based tools that are capable of expressing RM-ODP viewpoint specifications.
