uml Question
Hello everybody,
I am a new to UML, i wanted model the behavior of a CellPhone, my problem is that neither sequence nor state diagrams can fully convey what i want. my question is that can I combine sequence and State diagrams into one diagram?
i would appreciate answers from anyone, and thank you in advance

I dont think you can make a new uml diagram out of 2 that already exist it's always best to follow standards :).
What sort of cell do you want to model?
try looking on collaboration diagram.

Hello Tamao,
Thank you very much for you reply, actually it is a model for any cell phone inside a car. Well; the state diagram satisfies part of of what i want as it shows all the states( idle, dialing, active, ringing), but the communication with the amplifier is what i find difficult to model with state diagrams, and this is "i think" easier with the sequence diagrams.
since each diagram satisfies only part of what i want, i thought there might be a way to combine them in one diagram. but if this isn't possible, then what do you suggest,
thank you in advance for you help.

Hello again, sorry for the late reply :)
i use this book for UML and design patterns: http://oreilly.com/catalog/9780596007126
it's very fun reading and it's good to.
you can try making different diagrams for each function that might do the trick but i don't think you can combine them so they work with eachother in any way if they are different.
good luck.
