  • Model element characteristic preservation in modeling environments
    Patent number: 10579340
    Abstract: Model element characteristic preservation is provided when instantiating unified modeling language elements of a unified modeling language model. Requirements management tool elements become associated with a stereotype via, for instance, user assignment of the stereotype to a requirements type of the requirements management project. A stereotype assignment is obtained for a requirements management tool element, and the stereotype is automatically applied when instantiating a UML element representative of the requirements management tool element. Nesting and traceability relationships between the requirements management tool element and other requirements management tool elements are additionally preserved.

  • Multiple architecture viewpoints in single unified modeling language (UML) model
    Patent number: 9372669
    Abstract: A method, a system and a program product provide for defining for an information technology (IT) system that may be modeled within the context of a plurality of architecture viewpoints, and whose model elements are defined within a configuration file, a plurality of architecture viewpoints within a single UML model. The method, the system and the program product also provide for synchronously automatically updating a remainder of the architecture viewpoints when one of the architecture viewpoints is manually updated.
