Presentation - Practical Visual Modeling

Bob Maksimchuk describes the practicality of visual modeling at the 2008 RSDC

Project teams beginning to adopt visual modeling and the Unified Modeling Language often suffer from the "white paper syndrome" - they've been trained, but struggle with where to begin, how deep to go, and so on. This presentation approaches visual modeling pragmatically. Basic visual modeling is discussed, augmented with practical experiential advice, lessons learned from real-world projects, and heuristics for the beginning visual modeler.
