UMM At A Glance
UMM enables to capture business knowledge independent of the underlying implementation technology, like Web Services or ebXML. The goal is to specify a global choreography of a business collaboration serving as an “agreement” between the participating partners in the respective collaboration. Each business partner derives in turn its local orchestration, enabling the configuration of the business partner’s system for the use within a service oriented architecture ( SOA).
In order to guarantee user acceptance of the UMM, it must be both effective and easy to understand for the business process modelers and software architects.
UMM is based on the Unified Modeling Language ( UML) and its current version is 1.0 with version 2.0 currently being under development.
UMM 1.0 is based on UML 1.4 whereas UMM 2.0 will be based on UML 2.1.

Famous quotes containing the word glance:
“Nay, but Jack, such eyes! such eyes! so innocently wild! so bashfully irresolute! Not a glance but speaks and kindles some thought of love! Then, Jack, her cheeks! her cheeks, Jack! so deeply blushing at the insinuations of her tell-tale eyes! Then, Jack, her lips! O, Jack, lips smiling at their own discretion! and, if not smiling, more sweetly pouting—more lovely in sullenness! Then, Jack, her neck! O, Jack, Jack!”
—Richard Brinsley Sheridan (1751–1816)
