UML stands for Unified Modeling Language which is used in object oriented software engineering. Although typically used in software engineering it is a rich language that can be used to model an application structures, behavior and even business processes. There are 14 UML diagram types to help you model these behavior.
They can be divided into two main categories; structure diagrams and behavioral diagrams. All 14 UML diagram types are listed below with examples and a brief introduction to them explaining how they are used when modeling applications.
