Graphical Notation Objectives

• To show behavior graphically, the notation must: • Capture process flow and control

• Capture observables • Be understandable

• Information hiding/abstraction

• Be executable • Preserve behavior under • Decomposition • Aggregation • Allocation

Any system can be described as a “black box” that transforms inputs to outputs, AND any system can be decomposed as “black boxes.”
