Long time no blogging

The flu, birthdays and what not came in the way.

Today has been a day of reading and contemplating. At the moment I'm drilling into xtUML, Shlaer-Mellor, the differences between functional and semantical decomposition, etc.

And the ever so burning question, how can this be useful in our everyday development life?

xtUML might be well-known in some industries but I'm currently looking at it from an automotive angle. To me automotive is still struggling to find a way from idea to production without producing a lot of text during a long period of time. xtUML is certainly not the complete answer but it might be a small piece of the puzzle so it is worth doing some research and thinking.
