This textbook mainly addresses beginners and readers with a basic knowledge of object-oriented programming languages like Java or C#, but with little or no modeling or software engineering experience – thus reflecting the majority of students in introductory courses at universities. Using UML, it introduces basic modeling concepts in a highly precise manner, while refraining from the interpretation of rare special cases. After a brief explanation of why modeling is an indispensable part of software development, the authors introduce the individual diagram types of UML (the class and object diagram, the sequence diagram, the state machine diagram, the activity diagram, and the use case diagram), as well as their interrelationships, in a step-by-step manner. The topics covered include not only the syntax and the semantics of the individual language elements, but also pragmatic aspects, i.e., how to use them wisely at various stages in the software development process. To this end, the work is complemented with examples that were carefully selected for their educational and illustrative value. Overall, the book provides a solid foundation and deeper understanding of the most important object-oriented modeling concepts and their application in software development. An additional website offers a complete set of slides to aid in teaching the contents of the book, exercises and further e-learning material.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 39th International Conference on Conceptual Modeling, ER 2020, which was supposed to be held in Vienna, Austria, in November 2020, but the conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 28 full and 16 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 143 submissions. This events covers a wide range of topics, and the papers are organized in the following sessions: foundations of conceptual modeling; process mining and conceptual modeling; conceptual modeling of business rules and processes; modeling chatbots, narratives and natural language; ontology and conceptual modeling; applications of conceptual modeling; schema design, evolution, NoSQL; empirical studies of conceptual modeling; networks, graphs and conceptual modeling; and conceptual modeling of complex and data-rich systems.

Conceptual Modeling

The LNCS series reports state-of-the-art results in computer science research, development, and education, at a high level and in both printed and electronic form. Enjoying tight cooperation with the R&D community, with numerous individuals, as well as with prestigious organizations and societies, LNCS has grown into the most comprehensive computer science research forum available. The scope of LNCS, including its subseries LNAI and LNBI, spans the whole range of computer science and information technology including interdisciplinary topics in a variety of application fields. In parallel to the printed book, each new volume is published electronically in LNCS Online.

Dieses Lehrbuch vermittelt die Grundlagen der objektorientierten Modellierung anhand von UML und bietet eine kompakte Einführung in die fünf Diagramme Klassendiagramm, Anwendungsfalldiagramm, Zustandsdiagramm, Sequenzdiagramm und Aktivitätsdiagramm. Diese decken die wesentlichen Konzepte ab, die für die durchgängige objektorientierte Modellierung in einem kompletten Softwareentwicklungsprozess benötigt werden. Besonderer Wert wird auf die Verdeutlichung des Zusammenspiels unterschiedlicher Diagramme gelegt. Die präsentierten Konzepte werden anhand von illustrativen Beispielen erklärt.
