UML can be used to model the whole system visually independently of the platform language. This applies to the very high level architecture (Component diagrams, Use-Case diagrams, State diagrams, etc.) done at the early times of software development life-cycle (Inception phase) all the way down to the detailed decision making (Class diagrams, Object diagrams, Message Sequence Charts, State Diagrams, etc.).

UML provides a vocabulary of diagrams and chart types to describe almost* any application in almost* any domain.


*-almost, because there are some domains to which UML applies better then to others. For example, UML doesn't work as well with embedded system development as it does with other domains.
