| The UML meets the RDF
Sergey Melnik has created
a UML/RDF mapping. He writes that:
The goal of this work is to make UML "RDF-compatible". This
allows mixing and extending UML models and the
language elements of UML itself on the Web in an open
manner. XMI, the current standard for encoding UML in
XML by OMG, does not offer this capability. It is based upon
a hard-wired DTD.
Sergey initially
announced a mapping for the UML core conceptual model.
At that time, he indicated that his ulterior motive in
creating the UML/RDF mapping was to use it as the basis for
specifying the UML state machine formalism in RDF. Sergey
followed up by announcing
the availability of the state machine RDF mapping
earlier today.
