Rel Constraint

RelConstraint, short for Relationship Constraint, is a concept in Class Diagrams that represents constraints or conditions imposed on relationships between elements in the model. These constraints help to define rules or restrictions on how elements can be connected or associated with each other, ensuring the model adheres to the specific domain, context, or business rules.

In a Class Diagram, a RelConstraint can be associated with different types of relationships, such as associations, generalizations, or aggregations.

Example: In a Class Diagram for a university enrollment system, you might have two classes called “Student” and “Course” with an association between them representing the enrollment of a student in a course. You can define a RelConstraint on this association to express that a student can enroll in a maximum of six courses per semester. This constraint ensures that the enrollment process adheres to the university’s rules and policies.

Project Contribution

Project contribution refers to the participation and contribution of different stakeholders or components within a project. It represents the roles and responsibilities of each stakeholder or component and their contribution to the overall success of the project.

Lines may be used to connect the goal of increasing customer satisfaction with the initiative to offer discounts to loyal customers, to represent how this initiative contributes to the achievement of the goal.

Project

The “Project” symbol typically represents a discrete initiative or effort that has a defined scope, budget, and timeline.

The Project symbol can be used to represent a wide variety of different types of projects, such as new product development, process improvement, IT system implementation, or organizational change. It can also be used to represent projects at different levels of scale, from small, departmental-level initiatives to large, enterprise-wide programs.

Profile Application

A ProfileApplication is a template in a Class Diagram that represents the relationship between a model and a profile, indicating that the profile is being applied to the model. This relationship enables the usage of domain-specific stereotypes, tagged values, and constraints defined in the profile to customize or adapt the model according to the specific domain or context requirements.

By applying a profile to a model, you can introduce domain-specific semantics and rules to the elements in the model, making it more expressive and tailored to the particular application or industry.

Example: In a Class Diagram for a system that manages a healthcare facility, you might have a model called “HealthcareSystem” and a profile called “HealthcareDomain”. The “HealthcareDomain” profile includes stereotypes such as “Patient”, “Doctor”, “Nurse”, and “MedicalRecord”, as well as tagged values and constraints relevant to the healthcare domain.

To apply the “HealthcareDomain” profile to the “HealthcareSystem” model, you would create a ProfileApplication relationship between them. By doing this, you enable the usage of the domain-specific stereotypes, tagged values, and constraints defined in the “HealthcareDomain” profile to customize the elements in the “HealthcareSystem” model, making it more expressive and suited to the healthcare domain.
