  abstract =     "This paper analyses atomic notions in UML which are
                  fundamental for the understanding of dynamic aspects. The
                  notions considered are: Action, Event, Exception,
                  Message, Method, Signal, Stimulus, Operation, and
                  Reception. We surf through the UML metamodel by combining
                  the different metamodel class diagrams, where these
                  notions are defined, into a single class diagram. Thereby
                  we point out the intent, similarities and differences
                  between these notions. Thus before doing a formalization,
                  we try to make the concepts a bit clearer than they
                  appear in the UML Semantics document.",
