Poor planning is one of the top reasons why software projects are delivered late, over budget, or not at all, so it’s
important to get organized before start coding. Wide range of modeling tools that make it relatively easy to lay
out the functionality and use cases for a new project. One of the most popular languages that are used to
represent software design is the UML. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is the most widely used design
notation for software at this time, unifying a number of popular approaches to specifying structure and behavior.
In the last decade, the Unified Modeling Language (UML) has become a de-facto standard as modeling
language in software engineering. Nearer to 200 Commercial and open source tools which provide UML
modeling capabilities available in market. In this paper we concentrate on StarUML. StarUML is an open source
tool to develop fast, flexible, extensible, featureful, and freely-available UML/MDA platform running on Win32
platform. StarUML is excellent in customizability to the user’s environment and has a high extensibility in its
functionality. In this we present paper summarized study on open source technology, UML, StarUML. We hope
it will be help to Academic person, Student, Research, and those who are interested in software engineering
field.
