  Today's UML Element
Port
A port is both a connectable element and a structural feature of an encapsulated classifier. A port specifies the way a classifier interacts with its external environment or the way the internal environment of the classifier provides services to its external environment. A port may be connected directly to other elements in its external environment but typically uses interfaces to declare either the services that it provides or the services that it requires.
  Today's Thought Leader
George Boole (1815-1864)
Boole was an English mathematician who is considered to be one of the founders of symbolic logic. Although he had little formal education he made significant contribution to formal logic, differential equations and probability theory. Any variable that returns one of two results: (true or false) carries his name and is termed a boolean variable.
