“…URML [13] is the interesting proposal of REWERSE group for visual modelling of derivation and production rules; the approach was implemented in UML CASE tool "Strelka". Rules are represented as the first class entities in class models and have relationship (supplemented with expressions) with concepts involved.…”

Abstract. Currently Business Rules Approach has attained the great interest in business and software development communities. According to SBVR standard, business rules are the rules under business jurisdiction. Consequently, business rules should be managed by business people. However, acquiring and supporting the correct and reconciled SBVR style rule sets is the difficult problem. In practice, business rules often are managed by software developers and system analysts; more straightforward and safer processes for capturing and modifying business rules are related with visual business process models. In this paper, possibilities of representing business rules by UML&OCL models and their applicability in modern development processes are investigated 1 .

“…On the top of the list of concepts provided by RuleML [16], a UML-Based Rule Modeling Language (URML) has been developed. It extends UML meta-model with the notion of a rule and defines new diagram elements supporting visual notations for rules [3], [5]. In this approach, modeling rules is done with the help of a class diagram enriched by one new diagram element called a conclusion arrow.…”

“…If it is not possible for the rule to leave a start state, it means that the given rule is not active and cannot be executed at the moment. Following the conceptual rule classification [15], [3] we would like to define three types of business rules: Integrity Business Rules, Derivation Business Rules and Reactive Business Rules. The Reactive Business Rules incorporates Production Business Rules and ECA Business Rules [21].…”

“…Since UML is perceived as a universal modeling language, in a natural way there is a tendency to use it for rule modeling [3], [4]. Growing popularity of languages like URML [5] proves that UML has been recognized as a very useful platform for business rules modeling UML, thanks to being popular with the software and business community, has an emerging opportunity to became an everyday language for wide audience of people involved in various kinds of business activities.…”

Abstract-Recently, in response to growing market demand, several different techniques of business rules representation have been created. Some of them try to present business rules in a visual manner. However, due to the complexity of the problem, the graphic representations that are proposed seem to be far from perfection. In this paper we would like to describe how UML state diagrams might be used for business rules formulation and visual modeling. The strength of this approach relies on reusing classical notions provided by UML 2.0, e.g. an action, guard, etc., in a way which is close to theirs original meaning.
