UML Profiles are used to completely formalize the different development steps (design strategies, generation procedures, test strategies, integration plans, and so on). For each case of UML usage, a profile tells Objecteering/UML to apply :

	UML specialization, specifying useful parts and specializing UML notions
	Validation rules which check the model in this context
	Presentation rules, which are used to construct UML diagrams which conform to your demands
	Production rules, which ensure model transformations (Design Patterns) and development work product generation (code, documentation, and so on)

Use the J language to build your model searches, further strengthen the consistency checks provided by Objecteering/UML and develop your model checking utilities (impact analysis, complexity metrics, progress statistics, and so on). Optimize your tool to make the very most of your competitive know-how.
