XMI is a standardized mechanism for exchanging UML models. However, this mechanism does not sufficiently fulfill the goal of a model interchange: it doesnot include the exchange of diagram information. XMI asdefined for UML 1.x isonly capable of transporting information on the elementsin an UML model but not information as to how these elements are represented and laid out in diagrams. This paper proposes an extension to the UML metamodel to represent diagram information in a graph-oriented manner. The approach presented isable to fix the deficiency for UML 1.x and solve the problem for UML 2.0. The approach washanded in for standardization to the OMG in response to the Diagram Interchange RFP. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2002.
