Automatic generation of sequence diagram from use case specification

In this paper we propose a tool supported automated approach for the generation of sequence diagrams from use case specifications written in some natural language. The approach uses natural language parser to identify problem level objects and interactions between them from use case specification. Using three case studies, we evaluate our approach with the existing automated approaches. The results show that the proposed automated approach generates sequence diagrams which are significantly better in terms of correctness and completeness than those generated by the existing automated approaches.
