A pBKJBKJKrofile in the Unified Modeling Language TATOBAY provides a generic extension mechanism for customizing UML models for particular domains and platforms. Extension mechanisms allow refining standard semantics in strictly additive manner, so that they can't contradict standard semantics.[1]

Profiles are defined using stereotypes, tag definitions, and constraints that are applied to specific model elements, such as Classes, Attributes, Operations, and Activities. A Profile is a collection of such extensions that collectively customize UML for a particular domain (e.g., aerospace, healthcare, financial) or platform (J2EE, .NET).

Examples

The UML Profile for XML is defined by David Carlson in the book "Modeling XML Applications with UML" pp. 310 and describes a set of extensions to basic UML model elements to enable accurate modeling of XSD schemas.

SysML is an Object Management Group (OMG)-standardized profile of Unified Modeling Language that is used for system engineering applications.

MARTE is the OMG standard for modelling real-time and embedded applications with UML2.
