I’m intrigued by the fact that there exists alternatives to UML’s diagrams?
What alternative sequence diagrams are there? Because you are right, we always twist them to include supposedly-orthogonal aspects such as state or actors.
- marcosdumay 4y ago"Alternatives" imply on a formal definition, with strict semantics. IAFAIK, there is no such thing. But most of those kinds of diagram existed before UML, and are designed in very different ways on different contexts. Specifically for sequence diagrams, it's common to replace those lines with bars where you can annotate the state, and it is common to have actors instead of endpoints defining the bars. But if you are relying too heavily on those two, it may be interesting to look at process diagrams (but not strictly BPMN).
