現今軟體的開發方式已經由傳統的結構化開發方式，轉向物件導向的開發方法。統一塑模語言 (Unified Modeling Language, UML) 也成為物件導向系統分析與設計的標準塑模語言。然而使用UML來塑模平台獨立模式(Platform Independent Model, PIM) 的方法論中，並沒有考慮圖形之間的關係，造成PIM塑模時各圖形所表達之資訊容易有不一致的問題產生，而需要在做一致性的確認和調整。
因此本研究以Selonen et al (2003)所提出的轉換概念為基礎，提出一個PIM塑模方法論，並以一個測試個案進行可用性測試。應用上述的方法論來進行PIM塑模，系統開發人員可以更有效率的建構出PIM，進而提昇系統開發的品質和效率。

Today, software development approach has been shifted from structure-oriented to object-oriented. UML has become a standard modeling language in object-oriented systems analysis and design. Over the past few years a considerable effort has been made in the model driven architecture transformation area. However, little attention has been paid to the issue of transformation from sequence diagram to class diagram for modeling platform independent model (PIM). This study, therefore, presents a systematic methodology, extended from Selonen et al (2003), for sequence diagram to class diagram transformation. A case is used to illustrate the concept, application, and advantage of using the proposed methodology. With this methodology, the system developer can construct PIM efficiently and thereby enhance the efficiency and quality of system development.
