Presentation
Leveraging UML as a Standard Notation for Enterprise Architecture
UML is taking root as the standard notation of choice for communicating software designs, yet higher level architecture diagrams frequently consist of clouds, flaming walls, and a myriad of other icons, colored boxes, and lines. In this presentation, I will present the benefits of adopting a standard notation, specifically UML, for architecture diagrams. I will offer a proposed set of UML notations for specific architecture views and present some standards and guidelines as well as share experiences rolling this out to an icon-laden enterprise.
