Overview of the UML Standard profile (UML Standard profile)
The UML Standard profile provides the following diagrams, items and relationships:
• Package Diagram.
• Profile Representation, Model Library and Model Representation items.
• Access, Import, Profile Application, Package Merge, Realization, Refine and Trace relationships.
In addition to the preceding diagrams, items and relationships, the UML Standard profile predefined standard Stereotypes from the Standard Profile that is defined in the UML specification.
All of the Stereotypes have been linked with appropriate Modeler item types, which can be viewed through the Property Pages of the Stereotypes.
If you also add the SysML Profile to the model, you can create View and View Point items, and Conform relationships on a Package Diagram.
It is assumed that when the profile is imported into a model, it will be applied as appropriate to the requirements of that model.
The UML Profile package includes the following Stereotypes and Tag Definitions.

• Do not make changes to the UML Standard profile. Any changes you make will be lost when the profile is updated.
Note that you can create Tag Definitions outside of the UML Standard profile, and link those Tag Definitions to Stereotypes in the UML Standard profile. When the UML Standard profile is updated, the links will not be broken.
• Do not create copies of the UML Standard profile within a model, or create copies of the UML Standard profile through XMI Import/Export. The copies of the UML Standard profile will not work correctly and you will not be able to update the copies through the Update All Profiles command.
