LAI CHI KOK, Hong Kong -- Visual Paradigm International, a leading provider of visual modeling software, recently announced the release of Version 10.2 of their visual modeling product, Visual Paradigm for UML (VP-UML).

Version 10.2 of VP-UML introduces 5 major new features, along with more than 20 smaller features and enhancements. One of the new features is the support of OMG Service Oriented Architecture Modeling Language (SoaML).

Software Oriented Architect (SOA) is gaining increasing attention since most businesses require rapid response to changes and to support a very agile business model. As a software vendor that is in-touch with the latest software development innovations for building quality software systems and apps, Visual Paradigm have strengthened their VP-UML, an award winning modeling software by supporting SoaML. Development teams that build service oriented software can now model services architecture with the use of SoaML, along with the previously supported modeling languages like UML, BPMN, SysML, ERD and DFD.

Visual Paradigm have continued their proud tradition of providing customers with quality, well-thought features in every release they produce. Like how they support the other modeling languages in the past, Visual Paradigm deliver a bit more than the specification requires. VP-UML 10.2 encompasses five new SoaML diagram types, namely the Service Interface Diagram, Service Participant Diagram, Service Contract Diagram, Services Architecture Diagram and Service Categorization Diagram. Although different notations and tools are supported in the five diagram types, they are well integrated in a way that enables users to re-use the definition of services and participants across the diagrams meaningfully and accurately.

The support of SoaML in VP-UML is available now to software development teams who are using VP-UML as their software design tool. Visual Paradigm recommend users who are running an earlier version to upgrade to version 10.2 to enjoy SoaML modeling.
