Catalog of UML Profile Specifications

This page provides a catalog of UML Profile specifications. A UML profile is a specification that does one or more of the following:

  • Identifies a subset of the UML metamodel.
  • Specifies “well-formedness rules” beyond those specified by the identified subset of the UML metamodel.
    “Well-formedness rule” is a term used in the normative UML metamodel specification to describe a set of constraints written in UML’s Object Constraint Language (OCL) that contributes to the definition of a metamodel element.
  • Specifies “standard elements” beyond those specified by the identified subset of the UML metamodel.
    “Standard element” is a term used in the UML metamodel specification to describe a standard instance of a UML stereotype, tagged value or constraint.
  • Specifies semantics, expressed in natural language, beyond those specified by the identified subset of the UML metamodel. 
  • Specifies common model elements, expressed in terms of the profile.

Specifications are listed alphabetically.

Understanding Terms Used

In order to understand the various terms used to identify an OMG specification as it moves through its editing cycles, consult the OMG Specifications Tutorial. 

Specification Name: OMG Systems Modeling Language (SysML)
Description: The OMG Systems Modeling Language (OMG SysML™) is a general-purpose graphical modeling language for specifying, analyzing, designing, and verifying complex systems that may include hardware, software, information, personnel, procedures, and facilities. In particular, the language provides graphical representations with a semantic foundation for modeling system requirements, behavior, structure, and parametrics, which is used to integrate with other engineering analysis models. SysML represents a subset of UML 2.0 with extensions needed to satisfy the requirements of the UML™ for Systems Engineering RFP. SysML uses the OMG XML Metadata Interchange (XMI®) to exchange modeling data between tools.  
OMG Cross Reference: Domain Specifications

Specification Name: PIM and PSM for Smart Antenna
Description: This Specification supports a smart antenna subsystem that can be utilized for expanding a single antenna system to array antenna system. The Smart Antenna specification is physically partitioned into three major chapters: UML Profile for Smart Antenna (SA), SA PIM, and SA PSM. UML Profile for SA defines a language for modeling a smart antenna system by expanding the UML language. SA PIM provides a set of interfaces for interfacing with the signal processing module, RF module, and controller module. SA PSM provides a rule for transforming the elements of the Profile and SA PIM into the platform specific model for CORBA IDL and XML. The SA specification is related to "Communication Channel and Equipment Specification (formal/07-03-02)" volume in such a way that stereotypes and class that have not been commented in the SA specification are defined in it.
OMG Cross Reference: Domain Specifications

Specification Name: Service oriented architecture Modeling Language (SoaML®)
Description: This specification presents the SoaML (Service oriented architecture Modeling Language) specification provides a metamodel and a UML profile for the specification and design of services within a service-oriented architecture.

Specification Name: UML Profile for Advanced and Integrated Telecommunication Services (TelcoML)
Description: The objective of this specification is to define a UML Profile for designing advanced and integrated Telecommunication services.

An advanced and integrated telecom service generally means a service that exploits the convergence of communication networks - landline, wireless and voice, and in the same time takes advantage of the plethora of facilities accessible from the World Wide Web. Sensibility to user context - like presence, localization, user preferences and use of communication means (like SMS or voice messaging) are some of typical ingredients that appear in innovative telecommunication services that operators or third party service providers would like to offer to end-users. Application of model-driven techniques for an agile development of this new kind of services will be facilitated by the definition of a domain specific UML profile.

This specification standardizes firstly the UML representation of a selected set of service interfaces of typical telecommunication facilities (the TelcoML Enabler Library). Secondly, among different possibilities offered by UML to represent service logic, this specification selects one convention to represent service compositions (the TelcoML Composition profile).
