UML Sequence Diagram
A UML sequence diagram is an interaction diagram that shows how processes operate with one another and in what order. UML sequence diagrams are used to show how objects interact in a given situation. An important characteristic of a sequence diagram is that time passes from top to bottom, that is to say, the interaction starts near the top of the diagram and ends at the bottom.
Much like the class diagram, developers typically think UML sequence diagrams were meant exclusively for them. However, an organization's business staff can find sequence diagrams useful to communicate how the business currently works by showing how various business objects interact. UML sequence diagrams are good at showing which objects communicate with which other objects; and what messages trigger those communications.
