UML is the standard in software modeling and enjoys widespread use across various domains. However, domains like cyber-physical systems necessitate developers to model across diverse domains. The diverse use of UML underscores the need for tools to be interoperable. Unfortunately, a significant limitation in many UML tools is their lack of robust interoperability, impeding their integration into industrial projects, including cyber-physical systems. This paper proposes an approach to address the interoperability challenges between UML tools. We implemented this approach within an existing tool, USE, improving its ability to interact seamlessly with five widely used UML tools.
