Abstract

A universal modeling language (UML) analysis method may include importing a plurality of tool-specific UML models from a plurality of UML tools. The tool-specific UML models are in different tool-specific formats. The method may also include capturing snapshots, which may include text data and diagrams, of the plurality of tool-specific UML models. The method may also include translating each of the tool-specific UML models into a transformed UML model having a universal UML format. The translating operation may include extracting base data and one or more associated extended elements from the tool-specific UML model. The method may also include storing the transformed UML models within a UML tool database.
