UML Modelling

ballooba

Anyone know of any good free books on UML modelling?

On 'Rational Rose' in particular?

Exam on wednesday and I have never even looked at the stuff.

Cramming is my friend.

Its very practical stuff man.. hard to cram it in the night before
The book I got is by bennett and mcgraw and even our SE lecturer
said that its the best of a bad bunch.. the majority of them are just
filled with back to back pages of text and more text.. very few exercises
and hands-on work.. I heard good UML books are hard to find.. however
if anyone can recommend a decent one id appreciate it..My best advice
would be to go to:
http://www.comp.dit.ie/rlawlor/Soft_Eng/se_notes.html
and
http://www.comp.dit.ie/ft228/2/se/
and do some of the lab work.. hope this helps

theres an O'Reilly one thats good - one of the nutshell ones.
In fact I saw it recently 2nd - hand in Chapters bookshop in Abbey street.

Steer well clear of 'Using UML' by Stevens and Poodey.

It is a horrible affair from start to finish

Using the notes on UML Distilled in the link Repli posted and also our own notes from our lecturer.
