UML Designer is an open-source UML tool based on Sirius and Eclipse. The project is licensed under the EPL.

UML2

UML Designer is a graphical modeling tool for UML2 based on the Eclipse UML2 plugin and as defined by OMG. It provides support for the main UML diagrams and for UML profiles.{{cite web|url=http://lbroudoux.wordpress.com/2012/06/19/building-and-applying-uml-profiles-with-obeo-umldesigner/|title=UML profiles with UML Designer|date=19 June 2012 |accessdate=2015-03-05}}

Domain specific approach

As it is based on Sirius, the UML models could be combined with Domain Specific Modeling. Each diagram definition could be extended and adapted to specific user needs or combine it to Domain Specific Languages.
