NEW TOOL AUTOMATES SEQUENCE DIAGRAM GENERATION

EventStudio 2.5 is a sequence diagram-based system design and architecture modeling tool for the Windows platform. A sequence diagram is an effective way of modeling an object-oriented system. Unfortunately, most UML-based modeling tools only offer primitive support for sequence diagrams. EventStudio provides advanced constructs for sequence diagram-based object modeling. It supports the generation of message sequence charts and call flow diagrams used in telecom and embedded system development. Process workflow generation is supported for business process reengineering applications. 

When modeling with EventStudio, developers describe the interactions in the system in terms of a simple declarative modeling language. EventStudio then analyzes the model for design errors, inconsistent operations, resource leaks, and invalid timer operations. After the design issues have been addressed, EventStudio automatically generates sequence diagrams and collaboration diagrams.

EventStudio automatically handles diagram layout, formatting, scaling, and page breaks for sequence diagrams and collaboration diagrams generated in the Adobe PDF and Microsoft Word Picture (EMF) formats. This allows you to focus on system architecture and design, without getting bogged down by document layout issues.

EventStudio 2.5 runs on the Windows NT/2000/XP platforms. It costs $99.  Discounted multi-license packs are also available.
