In this work, we discuss how to interpret traditionalData Flow Diagram (DFD) by Unified Modeling Language(UML) for the purpose of integrating legacy systems withmodern systems. To do that we introduce DFD meta modelby using UML class diagrams and Object Constraint Language(OCL). We utilize the meta model to capture DFD semanticsand establish close correspondence between DFDexpressions and the expressions that can be derived by instantiatingthe meta framework. At the same time we describeprocedures to generate UML descriptions from DFDbased on the correspondence.
