Tutorials
  

During the <<UML>> 2001 conference, people deeply interested in the Unified Modeling Language and its applications from all over the world will meet. To tmake the meeting even more attractive, tutorials on advanced topics related to the UML will be presented. In all tutorials, a target audience is assumed which comprises practitioners, industrial researchers and developers familiar with and already working with UML. Attendees are expected to have a strong interest in improving and evolving UML, developing sophisticated tools to support UML, and delivering the next generation of visual modelling languages. They want to learn how UML has been applied effectively in specialized domains, and they have keen interest in prospective advances in the standard. There will be no introductory tutorials on UML, and too vague and general discussions will be avoided as well.

Tutorials generally will have a duration of half a day (with one exception), including short breaks. The number of partcipants will typically be around 25 people.

The following tutorials will take place in connection with <<UML>> 2001.
