SAML (Software Architecture Modeling Language) Guide

Overview

SAML (Software Architecture Modeling Language) is used to model and simulate software architectures, particularly in IoT-based scenarios. It allows users to define components, interactions, and behaviors in a structured manner. This guide provides a step-by-step approach to using SAML for designing a temperature sensor-based automation system.

Folder Viewer

This displays the file structure. It contains your SAML project, and there is a folder called ‘model’ where you can create your SAML models.

Diagram Canvas

Items can be taken from the palette and connections to model our SAML.
