UML model interchange in heterogeneous tool environments: an analysis of adoptions of XMI 2

The main motivation for the development of the OMG's XML Metadata Interchange Format (XMI) was the need to have a standard way for UML tools to interchange UML models. However, the fact that UML models, saved as XML documents, are now accessible to standard XML tools, opens up new possibilities to which less attention has so far been paid. This paper discusses how XMI can be exploited for performing model analysis and housekeeping tasks and for the integration of third party or in-house tools. With the help of examples we focus on what can be achieved with small-scale XMI programming by a single developer in hours rather than days. We suggest that this new capability may have important and positive implications for the future of UML modelling using tools.
