Abstract
This chapter provides essential rules, principles, and style guidelines for composing UML use-case or user models within the context of the roadmap, including use-case diagrams and their elements. Use-case modeling is concerned with modeling the functional dimension of a system—what functionality the system provides to its users—and is used for system, subsystem, and class conceptualization within the roadmap to capture in a conceptualization model what requirements the construct must satisfy and what functionality it provides to its users. A conceptualization model consists of use-case diagrams and their model elements. Our goal, in this chapter, is to gain more depth in understanding the UML notation and the roadmap concerning conceptualization models.
