This is the third and final article in my series for The Rational Edge on using Unified Modeling Language (UML) Activity Diagrams.

UML Activity Diagrams: Detailing User Interface Navigation

In the first and second articles, I showed how Activity Diagrams could be used effectively to capture use-case flows of execution and also to detail the dynamic aspects of the Process View.1 In both cases, this involves altering and enhancing the basic semantics of new stereotypes for activities. These stereotypes better capture details of the problem domain for use-case execution flows and the dynamic nature of system processing for the Process View. In this article, which illustrates how to use UML Activity Diagrams to capture and communicate the details of user interface navigation and functionality, I reintroduce three of these stereotypes: presentation, exception, and connector. The focus is on how to apply them to the functionality available to system users via a graphical user interface. Capturing Visual, Control, and Navigation Elements Back to top.

The 70 Online Databases that Define Our Planet. Back in April, we looked at an ambitious European plan to simulate the entire planet.

The 70 Online Databases that Define Our Planet

The idea is to exploit the huge amounts of data generated by financial markets, health records, social media and climate monitoring to model the planet’s climate, societies and economy. The vision is that a system like this can help to understand and predict crises before they occur so that governments can take appropriate measures in advance. There are numerous challenges here. Nobody yet has the computing power necessary for such a task, neither are there models that will can accurately model even much smaller systems.

But before any of that is possible, researchers must gather the economic, social and technological data needed to feed this machine. Today, we get a grand tour of this challenge from Dirk Helbing and Stefano Balietti at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich. These and other pursuits are now producing massive amounts of data, many of which are freely available on the web. XQuery Inside SQL Server 2005 : Performing XSLT Transforms on XML Data Stored in SQL Server 2005. A common task when dealing with XML data is to apply an XSLT style-sheet to the raw XML data in order to display it better.

XQuery Inside SQL Server 2005 : Performing XSLT Transforms on XML Data Stored in SQL Server 2005

In a previous post to this blog, I showed how to append a processing instruction to your XML data in order to get IE to do the transformation of your XML data. This approach required that you know the location of the XSLT transform file and also that you were looking at your data through a file and not extracted directly from the server. Using the integration of the CLR components with SQL Server 2005, we can perform this same transformation within the server process itself and output plain HTML that will be viewable by any browser. Firstly, we need to write the code that will apply the XSLT transformation. Following is the code I used to accomplish this: Notice the return type of this function, as well as the types of the various input parameters i.e. the type SqlXml.
