We're planning on writing a book in the near future for AndroMDA (we've been talking about it for a while). As for UML books, I'm not sure what the best one is, I've never really used any particular UML resource, mostly from experience and random other resources. I think Wouter might know some good ones.

Hi,

I've seen a couple of posts about UML books, a couple of them recommend.

UML Distilled by Martin Fowler.

I've been working with UML on and off for a number of years, I know about the various types of diagrams class, activity, sequence, use case ......

what I'm looking for is a book that describes modelling techniques that make sense from an AndroMDA perspective. UML is massive and I guess AndroMDA covers some aspects better than others. Moving forward, I plan to use AndroMDA on my projects so I'd prefer to learn more about the features of UML that I can leverage through AndroMDA.

I'm also keen to buy a book that covers these types of questions relating to modelling user interfaces such as:

How to associate presentation components such as text fields, with attributes in your persistence object model. (If I define an attribute as an integer field (1..100) in my object model, and a text field inputs data for that attribute, I don't want to have to repeat the constraint somewhere else.

How to model a search form and a table of search results, associating the various fields within the form to attributes in the persistence model. Hopefully so I can auto generate appropriate select, from and where clauses based upon the presentation and persistence models.

How to model navigation elements of a user interface.

Or is the web the best book?
