In these phases, developers record information necessary for properly understanding the nature of the systems under consideration. We consider a particular type of system, named Remote Lab that allows both teachers and students to perform real ex- periments over the internet and we focus on Virtual Instru- ment Systems in Reality (VISIR). We describe a summarized web interface of VISIR using the Unified Modeling Language (UML). Our case study aims at identifying the requirements of VISIR and at creating a set of UML diagrams that succinctly provide enough infor- mation to both developers and users so that they acquire enough information for building a general understanding of it. Additionally, we provide elements for extending UML to better support further user interface development in VISIR.engRemote labsUMLRLsVISIRWeb PagesActivity and Use Case DiagramUsing UML Models to Describe the VISIR Systemjournal article10.3991/ijoe.v12i06.5707
